Item Description
2.5x5x6.75" tall tin litho wind-up w/built-in key is marked "Made In Germany." ©1922 Fontaine Fox. Nicely designed toy includes die-cut tin figure of The Skipper. Toy works and when wound travels forward in a rocking motion. Trolley is designed to stop and shake slightly as The Skipper turns the controller before it continues on its way. Works well. Toy has minimal darkening of paint and scattered lt. wear, mostly to interior balcony areas. A much nicer example of this classic early comic character wind-up than is usually found. VF.
