boy's dreamby TiberiusComment: It's the short name for the ex Socialist Republic of Romania: Oficiul Național De Turism Carpați - National Office for Tourism Carpathian.
This is a gift from friend but I do remember having a similar one when I was a small boy. Quite neat.
The ONT Carpați toy bus is a legendary piece of Romanian toy history, manufactured by the Metalogobus Factory in Bucharest between the 1960s and 1980s.
Key Details:
Manufacturer: Metaloglobus Bucharest.
Material: It is a friction-powered tin toy made primarily of metal with plastic or rubber wheels.
Branding: Labeled "ONT Carpați" after the Oficiul Național de Turism (National Tourism Office), which used similar full-sized coaches during the communist era.
Collectibility: These are now considered rare vintage items. Depending on their condition and original packaging, they can be found on collector sites Message edited by author 2026-02-09 07:17:24. |
