STEEL PLATFORM CART/TRUCK w IRON WHEELS Railroad Warehouse Industrial Army VTG

Description

heavy-duty vintage Platform Cart or Truck -- made by the Service Caster & Truck Div. of Domestic Industries, Inc. of Albion, Mich.-- likely dates to the 1940s or '50s -- the deck measures app. 2 1/2 by 5 ft. --  3/32 in. steel sheet top welded on to a 1/4 in. steel frame with four cast iron or steel wheels- the two small ones swivel - the big ones are on a thick axle -- small ones measure 2 1/2 by 6 in. with a 3/4 in. axle - the large measure 3 by 12 in. with a 1 1/4 in. axle --
probably over 200 pounds -- the early 1940s patent number and the original looking army green bottom make me wonder if this was used by the US Army in World War Two: pretty cool regardless --
--
no handle included -- some wear from time and use -- wheel inner surfaces are dirty and a little greasy but the bearings are tight / they have been kept greased and turn smoothly
