Description

Lombardi was an Italian toy manufacturer known for producing high-quality tinplate vehicles and wind-up toys during the mid-20th century. Their models are now highly collectible for their detail, bold lithography, and mechanical features.

Lombardi was an Italian brand active primarily during the 1950s to 1970s, specializing in tinplate toys such as cars, motorcycles, buses, and novelty vehicles. Like many European makers of the postwar era, Lombardi capitalized on the demand for mechanical toys, often powered by wind-up motors or friction drive.

The company’s toys are especially recognized for their bright lithographed tin, often with Italian markings, unique vehicle designs, and toy-box art reflecting mid-century style. Compared to mass-produced German or Japanese toys, Lombardi pieces are rarer and have a strong national identity in both design and subject matter.

Because Lombardi did not export in large quantities, their toys are now highly prized by collectors, particularly when boxed or in pristine condition.
