Our chronological information on waggob is quite limited at this time. HBC is not yet sure when or where waggons first appeared. HBC first notices images of American boys with their wagons at the turn of the 20th century. Photographing them in the 19th century was more hit and miss because of the small number of amateur photographers. This is probabky in part because amateur snap shots begin to appear in large numbers in 1900. The wagon, hoever, appeared earlier, we just do not have details at this time. The early waggons were wood. Some look home made. I'm not entirely sure when they were first made commercially. Nor do we know when the first metal waggons appeared. Nor or we sure when the standard "little red waggon" appeared.
