Three die-cast metal toy tanker trucks, each modeled in a vintage commercial style. The collection includes a tanker truck with a red body and black cab roof, featuring gold-tone lettering on the tank side reading REDLINE-GLICO and THE TOP GEAR SPIRIT. It is fitted with silver-tone decorative tank caps and a side ladder. The second vehicle is a 1920s-style delivery tanker with a red body and black chassis; the tank is printed with a RED CROWN GASOLINE logo, and the cab door bears the text STANDARD OIL COMPANY (California) alongside the number 18 in a circle. The third vehicle is a cab-over-engine style truck with a red cab and chassis and a white tank. This tanker features the CONOCO logo in red and the CONTINENTAL OIL COMPANY name on the side rails, with a stylized C logo on the cab doors. All three models are constructed from die-cast metal with plastic wheels and feature free-wheeling action. There are printed marks on the side of the Redline-Glico cab, though the text is not clearly legible.
