Summary
A wooden toy tank painted grey with a movable gun turret (circa 1940 to circa 1950), with one gun and a radio mast which is attached by a screw to the main body. The tracks and wheels are inscribed on the tank. Two wooden blocks represent headlights. A nail in the front of the tank represents a gun. The Wootton Collection was all made by Walter H. Wootton (d.1979), a woodwork teacher.
