   The Hoge Manufacturing Company was established in 1906 in Manhattan, New York (USA) in 1909, by Mr. Hampden Hoge. The company initially produced office supplies, and Mr. Hoge had left the company in 1919, some 10 years later.  In 1931, the company decided to stop producing office supplies and produce toys - a bold move considering the timing! A few years later, the Great Depression would occur. The actual toy designs were contracted out to be manufactured by the Mattatuck Manufacturing Company. Products included pressed steel passenger and animated circus cars. There were also electric and clockwork (wind-up) locomotives and trains. Production stopped in 1939, and Hoge was bought by Mattatuck, and eventually dissolved (closed down) in 1958
