The Murray Ohio Manufacturing Company was founded in 1910 by J.W. Murray. for about 30 or 40 years, they produced a lot of Steelcraft Toys and a lot of pull toys. And after World War II, they really concentrated on items like this-- the pedal cars and bicycles. The company operated out of Detroit, Michigan until 1919 when the company was relocated to Cleveland, Ohio. The Murray brand name was actually not used until the conclusion of WWII. J.W. Murray was a well-known artist and designer who was wildly interested in industrial design and fine art. You can see his attention to detail in some of his Murray pedal car designs.
