Robur truck, DDR



Seen in Themar, Germany. The name Robur came from the Latin name of the common oak, Quercus Robur and they were made in the small town of Zittau in the south east.  The illustration on this example for VEB Spielzeugland (toyland), however, looks like a truck made in America rather than anything from the Eastern bloc.
