Description

Aberdeen Angus Cattle Set Authentic Scale Models (Hartland Plastics, 1955). Produced in 1955, this Aberdeen Angus Cattle Set is part of Hartland Plastics' Authentic Scale Models series, a line recognized for its realistic livestock subjects and educational presentation. The set includes molded plastic representations of Aberdeen Angus cattle, sculpted with attention to breed-specific characteristics and proportions consistent with Hartland's early farm and animal offerings. These sets were marketed for both play and display, aligning with mid-1950s interest in agricultural themes and realistic miniature modeling. The box shows moderate wear overall, with scuffing along the edges and moderate scuffing and crushing at the corners. The box surfaces exhibit moderate scuffing, creasing, and tearing, and the package has been opened through the perforated opening on the back. The contents appear unused and are housed in an open box. The original instruction sheet is included. A solid example from Hartland Plastics' early production, this Aberdeen Angus cattle set retains its original packaging and instructions, offering a clear snapshot of mid-century animal modeling and farm-themed toy design.
