Item Description
3x6.5x5.75" tall piano has attached figures of 6" seated in chair and 7.5" dancing with banjo all tin litho. 1930s. Toy is lithographed on both sides and front of piano and all 3 sides of chair with images of male and female minstrels. Toy works well and one figure dances and moves his banjo around while other figure's chair moves up and down causing hands to move around on keyboard. Music lithographed on front of piano above keyboard is "Dixie Blues." Wear to toy mostly centers where parts move including lower legs of banjo player and where hands touch banjo top and bottom, piano player has most wear on sides of coat where he goes up and down in the chair. Piano itself has few scattered paint nicks. Fine. A nice, displayable example of this classic toy.
