Ha! I thought those legs were mounted on the wall. I was going to comment that I also have human limbs mounted on my wall. *I really don't but I was just gonna say that I did. ;-P

Comment by Tiberius:
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

Like the worn look and the shallow DOF.
Was its route through Romania, the Carpathians?

Should have used a ND1000 filter and got the wheel in motion! Just kidding. :-) This is a nice representation of the subject.
