I was looking at some books on this. Is this a valuable collector piece, or just a little toy? Or is it worthless because there's something that went with it?
-
Neat cast iron piece that would appeal to a toy or doll collector. Is it marked? Arcade Mfg. made similar items.
-
The writing is a little faded. Do the numbers mean anything?
-
Nice. Collectible.
Please tell any/all numbers and lettering. Can you do a rubbing and get more info?

I think you've got a Kilgore pull stroller. ;)
