I am looking for information on Standard Oil Company of Indiana toys from the 1934 World's Fair in Chicago. The toys were made be National Products Corp of Chicago. The set includes an animal train and a set of cars(Studebaker,Chryler,Terraplane...)Any information on some one that may have knowledge would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Chris

I have a friend who's been attempting to collect those for years. I'm not sure exactly how many he has, but I think he has four or five. I know he's looked at a lot of literature from the World's Fair to determine how many different animals might have been made. I hadn't heard about the cars before..thats interesting.

I'll give him a call tonight and let you know what I find out. What animals do you own?
