The Buzzy Bee Story
The inspired creation of Auckland brothers, Hec and John Ramsey, the Buzzy Bee has endeared itself to millions of New Zealanders. An intriguing concoction of buzzing sound, quivering antennae, spinning wings and basic bold colors, this delight pull-along toy has been purchased in the hundreds of thousands since its first release in the mid 1940’s.
From turning out wooden home wares and wooden door knobs, Hec Ramsey first ventured into toys with the release of the famous Mary Lou Doll in 1941. It was an immediate hit – with generations of New Zealanders destined to cut their teeth on its beaded limbs. Soon after, other character wooden toys were added including the New Zealand icon, Buzzy Bee, Richard Rabbit, Oscar Ostrich, Dorable Duck, Kris Cricket, Peter Pup, Katie Caterpillar, Twin Ducks, Driver Don, Percy Penguin, Alli-Gator, Trikey Tom.
For more than 50 years, Buzzy Bee has been an outstandingly popular toy with young New Zealanders. This beautifully-made wooden, pull-along toy has become a New Zealand icon, featuring in museums, exhibitions of Kiwiana, postage stamps, books, paintings, posters, songs and television programmes.
