Item Description
Late 1950s 12" tall painted tin figure with tin litho nut bowl has applied thin vinyl skirt. Comes with original steel ball bearing which acts as a nut. Has perpetual motion style action- arm raises quickly and flips a "nut" into his mouth and "Nibs" makes noise as if in delight and eyes roll, ball bearing then travels through his body and returns through arm to repeat the action. Underside of right foot has Line-Mar sticker. One side of skirt is faded and skirt has a few barely noticeable color rubs. Skirt Fine. Toy works well and is Exc. Neat action.
