BB Korn Red Tether Car

The original "Indianapolis" B B Korn Spindizzy was sold by the B. B. Korn Specialty Mfg Co of Los Angeles, California. Pre-war aluminum car (assembled) sold for $49.50, the magnesium car (assembled) sold for $53.50. This BB Korn Tether car was considered the "premium" of the toy speed cars.

Technically skilled enthusiasts of the 1930s loved to race the legendary B.B. Korn cars around the club tracks. Called tether cars or spindizzies, they reached incredible speeds, and inspired thousands to improve and invent. The founder of the B.B. Korn Manufacturing Company, Barney Korn, produced several tether car models that now, as vintage antiques, achieve astounding sums at auction.
