Lot 31: Sea Bee, Scale Model Outboard Motor, Battery-Operated Toy, Circa 1960

Manufactured under the Sea Bee brand name (historically marketed by the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company) and likely produced by Mitsuwa, this is a highly detailed scale model outboard motor. The piece features a robust construction of cast metal and plastic components. It is finished in a period-correct blue and white colour scheme with original Sea Bee decals on the cowl. The model includes a three-blade propeller, a manual tiller control, and a functional mounting bracket. This item serves as a significant example of mid-century marine-themed promotional toys. Serial number is not present on this scale model.
