starting with the DOUBLE DECKER BUS, probably made in the mid 1950�s
It is approximately 3.5 inches (8.5cm) long and about 1.5 inches (3.5cm) high

The bus has transfers on each side, between the upper/lower decks
this reads �BEEJU PLASTIC TOYS�. There are a small number of small
plastic passengers glued inside, usually 2 on top, 2 downstairs plus driver
A variation has the text 'BEEJU toys' on the side

BEEJU also made a coach (or single deck bus),
this was also about 3.5 inches (8.5cm) long
but only approximately 1 inch (2.5cm) high. It is a traditional half cab design,
with a streamlined rear and plastic passengers and a driver glued inside.

also BLUE. This coach is made from more brittle plastic, it has not warped
also the design is different- the logo on the side is stamped on,
the windows are a bit bigger, it has more detail
and the base is tabbed on, not glued (see scan)
