The U.S. Royal Giant Tire toy was sold as a souvenier at the 1964-65 New York World's Fair and also at participating U.S. Royal tire dealers across the county for $2.98.
They were powered by a single D-cell battery (not included) and featured 18 free-moving gondolas (baskets/cars) , a US ROYAL sign, and twelve figures (2 sets of 6 unique figures).
This Ferris wheel does rotate. Input a D cell battery, gently push the gear underneath, it will start. (These directions on the toy on bottom) This has only 9 original figures, very good condition. This box is stamped a “SOUVENIR OF THE U.S. ROYAL EXHIBIT AT N.Y. WORLD’S FAIR”.
