  Champion, ATC Japan 1960's This ATC toy was clearly inspired by the successes of the Honda racing team in the sixties. In Spain toymaker Rico made her own edition of this toy with the Montesa logo on the tank - instead of the Honda wing - and the racing number 13 . This toy is 25 cm long, but there is also a smaller version measuring 20 cm. ATC stands for Asahi Toy Company. This was not a toy manufacturer, but a big importer that used its own brand instead of besides that of the producer. The ATC trademark has a wonderfull logo; Santa Claus with a bag full of toys from Japan.

  Technofix 1955 - 1960 close-ups. The Technofix name was owned bij the Einfalt brothers (Gebrüder Einfalt or G.E.) The motorcycle toy they made had a long life. The first version dates back to the 30's. This is the Einfalt YZ 243; the motorcycle runs circles, falls and rights itself again and produces sparks from the exhaust. The second version was the GE 255 . Made in the US zone of Germany (1948 - 1958) and marketed under the Technofix brand. Same action as the Einfalt 243, but without the sparking from the rear. The last version is the G.E. 258. It still rides circles but now the fall mechanism also has disappeared. In the late fifties the graphics were modernised to brighter and harder graphics; the bike gets back springing in the style of the BMW R51, but lacks much of the old fashioned charm of the original. When Technofix ended production in the sixties the moulds were sold to the French firm Joyax in Marseille. Here the production went on untill 1985! These motorcycles bear the name Technofix but are marked 'made in France'. And then there is a Italian version by Ingap from the 50's. Same moulds again, but with wonderfull old style graphics.

  Arnold 643, Germany 1935 -1955 A sturdy motorcycle toy, tagged A643, produced by Karl Arnold & Co. Modelled after the German Zundapp and BMW flat twins of the late 1930's. Produced from 1935 to 1955. Lenght 20 cm. Clockwork motor with a separate axle from the rear wheel to a flintstone in the oversized headlamp makes it glow in the dark. Produced in this civilian version in two basic colours, red or blue. Military versions in camouflage colours were also available. After the war these 'Wehrmacht' models tagged A754 disappeared from the catalogue. In the 1950's Arnold used the same mold with a new print to modernize this old workhorse. The gimmick with the sparkling headlamp was discontinued in this model that is tagged A560.

• Huki pennytoy #25 Pennytoy #25 Trademark Huki, US zone of Germany no drive This is the solo version; another version was made with sidecar 9,5 x 6 x 3 cm. At the end of the second World War the city of Nuremberg - the center of German toymaking - became part of the US zone of Occupation; and therefore all export articles were to be marked 'made in US-zone of Germany'. After the occupation was lifted at the end of the 1940s, much of the same tooling was used, hence these markings continued to be used long into the 1950's. Most of the German toy motorcycles copied real models; this one is the popular Zündapp flat twin; you can see it on the engine layout and logo on the petroltank.

  Huki, US zone Germany 1950 The German toys made in the late1940s are based on pre-war designs. The colours are of the 1930s: reddish-brown, beige, and olive-grey. The graphics show grim faced riders wearing knitted gloves and scarfs. But during the 1950s the miraculous West German economic recovery - the so called 'wirtschafswunder' - changes the mood. The colours get brighter; the riders get more relaxed and happier. A wonderfull example of this new era is the Technofix scooter # 282 from 1956.

  Kellerman, Germany 1940's Kellerman Socius Motorrad #353 1936 - 1950. Made by the German firm of Kellerman in 3 different versions. An army version was made under the Nazi government with two Wehrmacht soldiers with detachable shoulder rifles . After the war toy came back 'made in the US zone of Germany. With - understandably - civilian riders only. Even a sidecar version existed. The motorcycle describes a figure of 8 with the passenger bending over in the corners. The pillion passenger is often missing, like on this one .

  Motorkerekpar, Hungarian Tippco With a lifespan of more than fifty years this is a true classic. It started life as the Tippco TCO-58. Tippco offered the toy from the early 1950's till halfway the 1960's in a solo version or (more scarce) with a sidecar attached. In the seventies and eighties Lemezarugyar in Budapest (Hungary) produced a succesfull copy of the toy with their own graphics. In the same period a police version of the toy was offered by the Turkish Ne-kur toy factory. In Germany a re-edition of the Tippco appeared in the 1980's under the JW (Josef Wagner) trademark. And nowadays the toy is made again in China.

As the sales brochure says: '(the motorcyclist) turns back from every table-edge in a most amazing manner, without ever falling off'. After the war in 1945 the Sport came back as the Schuco Mirakomot; the same moulds were used but with a different litho. And a variant was introduced as the Motodrill (1006). This one looks the same but has a different mechanism; it goes in a circle and periodicaly spins on its axis. These Schuco's were solid compact models, only 13 cm long. They were produced up to 1965, when Schuco went bankrupt. Since the 1980's re-editions are on the market.

  Schuco Motodrill, replica 1990's In 1976 the old Schuco company went bankrupt. Since then a lot of re-editions have appeared, often sold as limited editions. In the 1990's the first replica's were made in Czecho-Slovakia; later the production went to China. Some of these are very good copies of the original, others are not. It is easy to see if you have an original Schuco or a replica by looking at the bottom. If it says 'Made in US-zone of Germany' or " Made in Western Germany" it is probably the real thing... If it says nothing about the country of origin you sure have a re-edition. Other points of attention are the pressings that are less refined in the details on the copies. Also the colours are different; modern paints are often 'harder' and more glossy.

The first version - shown here - dates back to the late 30's. This is the Einfalt YZ 243; the motorcycle runs circles, falls and rights itself again and produces sparks from the exhaust. The second version was the GE 255 . Made in the US zone of Germany (1948 - 1958) and marketed under the Technofix brand. Same action as the Einfalt 243, but without the sparking from the rear. The third version was the G.E. 258. It still rides circles but the mechanism is simplified again: the fall and rise mechanism now also has disappeared. In the last version - in the late fifties - the graphics were modernised to brighter and harder graphics; the bike gets rear shocks in the style of the BMW R51. This version gets the name Komet or Shooting Star. When Technofix ended production in the sixties the tools were sold to the French firm Joyax in Marseille. Here the production went on untill 1985! These motorcycles bear the name Technofix but are marked 'made in France'. The Italian firm INGAP made their own versions of this succesfull toy.
