Label TextToy cars, trucks, and tractors are favorites among children today, and it was no different in the 1950s, the decade in which both this truck terminal and front-loader construction vehicle were used. The children who played with them used small cardboard boxes, such as those that held S.O.S pads or lozenges, as “freight” while they pushed the trucks around
