VINTAGE 1922 GERMANY TOONERVILLE TROLLEY TIN WIND - UP TOY
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:78092 | UPC: Does not apply |
THIS TOY DOES NOT WORK, AND IS MISSING ONE WHEEL. It is offered for parts or restoration. This is an ALL ORIGINAL "Toonerville Trolley" train car, made in the early 1920's. This was one of the earliest comic / cartoon character, tin wind-up toys ever made. IT DOES NOT WORK. When you wind the key, it turns - but nothing happens. (The stem, that the key is attached to, is slightly bent.) The gears and mechanisms all seem to be present - perhaps it can be repaired.... (?) The other big flaw, is that IT IS MISSING ONE WHEEL. Also, one of the small tabs, that connects the roof to the sides of the car, is missing. I don't see anything else missing. The toy is marked: "TOONERVILLE TROLLEY...Copyright 1922 By FONTAINE FOX...MADE IN GERMANY...G.M 33967...D.R.P. 257554...PAT. APPLIED FOR." Aside from the missing wheel, it displays nicely. There is some "spider webbing" and crazing / crackling in the surface paint. (One side more than the other.) The figure of the "Skipper" is still present. The toy measures 4 & 3/4 inches long. It is 2 & 1/4 inches wide - not counting the key, that extends past the side of the train car. This toy, and ALL parts, are guaranteed to be old & original - made almost 100 years ago - or your money back. I am here to help you with any questions!!!
