In 1876, Christian Götz founded the Company Christian Götz. In 1906 the Company was taken over by his son Konrad Götz and the Company was renamed GÖSO: Christian Götz & Sohn GmbH. After WW2, they produced tin toys as well as plastic toys. .
Probably one of the earliest existing tin toys produced of the VW Kombi, Panel Van and Pickup. It has nice body details with colorful lithograph artwork and designs. The Panel Van and Kombi had double side doors but these GÖSO Busses had only one large door that opened, probably to save manufacturing costs. All the VW Busses are “barn door” style representing a pre-1955 era, despite being produced thought the 1960s. |
