Welker & Crosby Cast Iron Mack Delivery Truck, c.1920s — 5½", Heavy Iron
Step back to America’s roaring industrial era with this Welker & Crosby cast iron delivery truck, dating to the 1920s–early 1930s. Cast in solid iron and weighing just over a pound, this sturdy little hauler mirrors the look of early Mack C-cab trucks that rolled through bustling city streets.
Featuring a paneled cargo body, arched C-cab roof, and solid steel wheels, it bears the distinctive form documented in known Welker & Crosby “Mack Delivery” models — a style prized by collectors for its bold, practical design. The body shows remnants of period paint, along with interior casting marks “8,” “4,” and a faint “5” on the driver’s door—typical of mold identifiers from Welker & Crosby’s foundry work.
Condition
Good condition overall with age-appropriate wear. Displays surface oxidation, paint loss, and light pitting from decades of handling. Wheels turn freely; structure remains solid. Sold as shown with authentic century-old patina.
Dimensions
Height: 3"
Width: 2"
Length: 5½"
Weight: 1 lb 3 oz
Collector’s Note
Founded in the late 19th century, Welker & Crosby became one of America’s early cast-iron toy makers, crafting wagons, horse-drawn carts, and later, motorized delivery trucks like this one. Their Mack-inspired C-cab trucks are well-documented in toy archives and collector references
