It's Spiderman, it actually gave me a good reading too, I had to repair part of his shoulder with some epoxy but the thing actually works. The wheat is a 1941.

Does digging spidey get you into the Justice League???? Again never seen one posted before. What type of toy is that, a tootsie or matchbox?

Al, you beat me to it again this am... Although I think it looks more like a matchbox. The tootsie in general were a bit bigger and more like model cars while matchbox were more like toy cars. There is room to be wrong. Nice strange find with the nightlight. I see the avatar changed but I didn't see this thread. I had no idea if you were on some Spidey kick...and there were no movie releases recently.

Very cool find on the Spider-Man night light! Now that's a find that we don't see every day! :thumbsup01:

The toy car is definitely a Tootsietoy Hot Rod Pickup Truck. You can see it in this Tootsietoy Jam Pack from 1969:

Nice and interesting finds. Loved those old matchbox cars/trucks from the 60s/early 70s when I was a kid. Only issue was the lead paint on some of them. Man, durable too with solid metal axles. Almost impossible to bend the wheels.
