Ski-Kar

Ski-Kar with Trailer

Ski-Sled

Send for Catalogue and Prices

"King of the Speedway" Dimensions 32-in. long, 11-in. wide, 14-in. high Features and Equipment:

Direct chain drive through rear axle controlled by ratchet, assuring maximum power with minimum effort. Start can be made from any position of handle.

Steering device permits the car

turning within almost its own

length.

Will coast down hill speedily, while the handle remains stationary.

Has good size wire wheels, equipped with solid-rubber tires.

Sturdily built, positive in action, safe and easy to operate; both seat and handle are adjustable to suit operator.

A fast hill climber and a comfort- able rider.

"Some Kar"

Here we have a practical Trailer that can be attached instantly with two simple bolts, making it a prac- tical Kar to carry an additional passenger-and Oh! how the kids do love to carry their pals!

The trailer seat has a front parti- tion, which makes it readily acces- sible as a seat, or it may be con- verted into a box of practical size to carry parcels. A most useful vehicle equipped for the child's errands to a neighboring grocer or tradesman.

The Trailer is furnished with two 10-in. wire wheels with solid rubber tires, and rides lightly and smooth- ly. "Hi, ho, let's go," says the kid.

"Swift as the Winds"

The Spaulding Ski-Sled is auto- matically operated by a "kicker," attached direct to the transmission gear, which makes its action posi- tive and safe.

The movement of the Ski-Sled is controlled by the operator the same as in the Ski-Kar.

A Ski-Runner is attached to the steering bar and the operator con- trols with his feet, the movements of the Ski-Sled, the same as he does with the Ski-Kar.

A Speedy challenger on snow and ice with a safe steering device. Adjustable handle bar and seat to suit all size children.

See that "kicker," it does the work. Can't slip; picks and pulls like the human leg. Pulls hills with lots of pep -- coasts like a fairy in the air.
