Item Description
5.25" tall tin litho toy w/built-in key. ©1923 Fontaine Fox. Toy depicts Katrinka behind a separate tin figure of Jimmy. Toy works and when wound, she lifts Jimmy (via wire leading from her hand into and through Jimmy's head) every so often and continues on. Also produced in a version where Katrinka pushes/lifts wheelbarrow w/Jimmy in it. Overall even moderate darkening w/some scattered small paint nicks. Works well. Fine. Great example of this fantastic wind-up toy.
