Item Description
Overall size is 1.75x3x3.75" tall and features Mickey Mouse figure w/high relief front and flat reverse atop circular base. Great image of Mickey playing banjo and w/glass egg timer filled w/sand attached to the back of the instrument. Unmarked but 1930s and almost certainly German-made. As made, there is an additional tiny 1/8" hole at Mickey's tail although purpose is unknown. Great design and image. Mickey's raised elbow has a 1/16" chip and base has some small scattered spots at edges. VF. Rare and only the second example we've seen in our 47 years, our last example selling for $728. From the Maurice Sendak Collection and comes with COA.
