Amos 'n' Andy

Louis Marx freely admitted that the Amos 'n' Andy toys that he produced were one of the main reasons that his relatively young toy firm was able to survive the worst years of the Great Depression. The most popular of these toys, all of which are now highly collectible, was the "Amos 'n' Andy Fresh Air Taxi." Based on the famous roof-less cab of the radio show and the toy proved very popular. || Fox Rent A Car ||
