Sorry I can't help with an ID but it sure is cool - looks maybe early to mid 30s in design.

Looks rustic and sturdy. Great addition to the decor of the outside of the building. Your house? But Im sure you have a spot in your collection display in the house.
Love the streamline look.
Nice find Vince

I checked my collector books and found a Mercury model nearly identical to this on a 1942 catalog page. The only difference is that the '42 model had artillary style wheels with the openings around them instead of solid wheels. My guess is that Mercury(Murray) made this style wagon from the late '30s to the early '40s and yours is more towards the late '30s with the solid wheels. American National made a very similar designed wagon in the early 1940s and possibly earlier, also with artillary wheels on the '40s model. Hope that info helps.

Amazing! I have my dad's wagon like this in pieces in my garage. One of my next projects. It had been painted several times, and I came across your post through a google image search.

The rust and pits are pretty deep. I'm hoping to find some key replacement parts.

Great wagon! I have one also. Mine has pneumatic tires though. I love mine and i'm sure you will love yours too. What colors does it appear to be? Maroon and off white or ??

I had a wagon like this but with headlights and fenders.
I could kill myself for selling it !

Slick,Mine seems like it is maroon or brown and cream.
