Zimbabwe - Hand Made City Bus - Right Side and Front
When I saw this charming bus on eBay, I snapped it up immediatedly. This wonderful city bus from Zimbabwe is made entirely by hand from wood, tin, plastic, wire, and other found materials. It was then colorfully painted with great imagination. I have seen John Deere tractors from Zimbabwe made in similar fashion; the use of mixed media such as this seems to be typical of Zimbabwean folk toys.
