Question
HEY, I JUST BOUGHT A KIDDIE HORSE RIDE, IT HAS METAL PLATE ON IT MADE BY TUSKO. IT IS WHITE AND OPERATES ON A DIME. I CAN NOT FIND ANY INFO ON IT. PLEASE HELP

Answer
Hi Dee,

I can give you a couple of links where there may be more information to be found but what I know of these, "Tusko", is there more newer then anything I deal with. I believe there are a bunch of these still out and running and may still be selling. I deal in old coin operated machines, mechanical and old arcade stuff in the 60's and before. I don't follow any of these newer stuff at all/ There is just to much to keep up with in the older coin operated machines that I know and work with. So Dee, I have a few links here that you should be able to find what information you are after about them. I will keep looking for a better source of information for you an these and drop you a note as a follow-UPS as I locate more for you. Being I only have knowledge and information on the antique machines, I just don't have any reference information on any of these. I do see the sell and trade from time to time on the market. Sorry Dee that I can't help you right away with more information but this is just not old enough to fit in with the information that I have on hand here. Here are those links for you to get you started:

I'll be back to you with more on what I can find, as I find it OK?

Thank You
