significant changes from the first and most elaborate, to the simple
designs of the last ones made.

Wild Animal Wagon
The very beautiful horse drawn wild animal wagon was produced
about the same time as the band and flat bed wagon.

Large Wild Animal Gage Wagon
A larger version was also produced. This one is 12 inches long. |
Flexible Cage
The flexible animal cage was a simple design made from
small corrugated strips and wire soldered together. It was introduced in
1906 and was produced probably until the 1930s.
