Item Description
3.75x12x3.5" tall tin litho toy with built-in key. 1952. Great design with nicely detailed rocketship. Toy works and travels as pinging sound is produced. No sparks are produced as flint is gone. Separate tail fin flint cover which is often missing is an expertly crafted replacement. Scattered paint wear, with 1" scratch at back top. Slight trace of oxidation to rear of ship behind replacement tail fin. Piece still retains bright color and gloss finish. Fine.
