This is a cast iron toy of the 1930s: a Hubley patrol motorcycle with Popeye as the rider. The maker identified itself on the tires, which carry the lettering HUBLEY MFG. CO., and the piece measures 4 1/2 inches wide, 9 1/2 inches long and 5 inches tall. Listed under SKU MIS1393 in the antique tools and neat stuff section, it is a used antique described as being in very good condition, and the title notes it as a rare example.

Pieces like this tend to end up beside the gun safe of a South Carolina collector who likes the period as much as the hardware, sharing shelf space with old ammunition boxes and tin signs from the same decades. At under ten inches long it fits a bookcase or a glass cabinet without crowding, and the measurements above let you plan the spot before it lands. There is no firearm here, so the package comes to you like any other parcel.
