Item Description
11.25x17x2.5" deep box contains Set No. 1536 c. 1935. Box lid has one
corner split. Trace of staple rust, mostly on the plain box bottom. Lid has
additional scattered light wear/aging. Still quite nice overall for display.
Fine. Box is complete with insert that holds the pieces in place. This has
moderate scattered wear and small scattered rust spots/stains. Train consists
of 7" long wind-up painted metal engines, 4" long coal car with attached Mickey
figure and 3 different 6" long tin litho train cars. The engine works and comes
with original key but front has an opening for light bulb which is no longer
present. Key even comes in small original illustrated envelope noting it can
also be used as a "Rail Gauge." Front of engine has three .5" areas of paint
loss, additional small trace of paint wear on back edge. Coal car has
composition figure of Mickey from the waist up and he holds a shove. This
figure is designed to move up and down as if he is shoveling as the train
travels around the track. Back is marked "Mickey Mouse Stoker." Tin car has
moderate scattered trace of paint wear. The 3 train cars each have a different
title and these are "Mickey Mouse Circus/Mickey Mouse Band/Circus Dining Car."
All have scattered tiny traces of paint wear but remain clean and feature great
images. Set includes 8 sections of curved track and 2 sections of straight
track. There is a 5" tall painted composition figure of Mickey as a circus
barker. This has moderate scattered trace of paint wear. The die-cut cardboard
accessory pieces include large circus tent with separate pieces for flagpole and
Disney characters as circus performers, gas station with "Sunoco" pumps, Sunoco
billboard, barrel truck, "To The Circus" piece featuring Mickey and Minnie, ten
5¢ admission tickets. Scattered general wear from assembly. The circus
tent top has one section loose and one tab loose both with tape repair. The
entire set shows general wear from use but remains Fine overall. A true classic
for both collectors of Disneyana and train sets. This is the first complete set
we've ever offered.
