Buddy L Toys were originally manufactured by the Moline Pressed Steel Company, started by Fred A. Lundahl in
1910. The Buddy L co originally manufactured automobile fenders, hubs & other stamped auto body parts for the
automobile industry. The company primarily supplied parts for the McCormack-Deering line of farm implements
and the international harvester company for its trucks Moline Pressed Steel did not begin manufacturing toys until
1921. Mr Lundhal wanted to make something new, different, and durable for his son Arthur thus he designed and
produced an all-steel miniature truck, reportedly a model of an International Harvester truck made from 18 and 20
gauge steel which had been discarded to the company's scrap pile. Today surviving examples are cherished by all
Buddy L made such products as Toy cars, dump trucks, delivery vans, fire engines, construction equipment, and
trains. Fred Lundahl used to manufacture for International Harvester trucks. He started by making a big toy dump
truck out of steel scraps for his son Buddy Soon after he started selling Buddy L "toys for boys" made of pressed
steel Many were large enough for a child to straddle, propelling himself with his feet others were pull toys. A true
pioneer in the steel-toy field, Lundahl persuaded Marshall Field's and F. A. O. Schwarz to carry his toy line He did
very well until the Depression, then sold the company. E-mail the Buddy L Museum for inquiries and membership
