Galanite

Cars were the most popular, but trucks, farm vehicles and airplanes and toy dishes such as tea sets were also produced.

The plastics company Galanite was started in 1947 by two Danish immigrants to Sweden named Ludwig Hawaleschka and Børge Hansen.

Like most rubber vehicles, construction was of only seven parts: a molded vinyl body, two metal axles, and four plastic tires.

A unique collaboration existed between the Nordic toy manufacturers, which rented Galanite's molds.

Galanite toys have also been made by HP-Plast in Denmark, by Giske in Norway and by Plasto in Finland.
