The first is "Magic Garage", a postwar wind-up toy, made by Yonezawa Toys of Japan. Both the car and garage are lithographed tin. After the friction-powered car was wound with a key and placed in the garage, it would magically exit when a lever was pulled to open the garage door. The second is "Mystery Car" made in Western Germany and operates the same as the previous model. Both with original boxes.
