Goodwill Find

[Fabius]

Something a little different. While searching for treasure at a South Haven Michigan Goodwill found this Tonka Bell System line truck with trailer and accessories. Notice the cable reel (removable) in the trailer.$3.50 plus tax.

That is a nice set and mostly complete. I think it is missing another pole and manhole barrier.

I have a complete set in the box.  I bought years ago @ a show in Kansas.

So there was two manhole barriers?

I guess my set is a different one. It doesn't have the road barrier.
Mine  is the "Bell Telephone emergency repair set 1001" made by Tonka in 1980.
It has the van,trailer, spool, short sign, 2 piece manhole barricade, 3 telephone poles and a bucket truck.
