Fischer Nuremberg, Germany circa 1922-1924. The toy dimensions are 7” at the highest point, 5” long & 3” wide. Copyright dated 1922 Fontaine Fox, the comic strip artist who created the characters who live in Toonerville & ride the eponymous trolley. The Skipper stands in front & works the tiller to steer the trolley. When wound the trolley rolls forward & the eccentric wheels with offset axle cause the toy to wobble & shake. The toy works very well & the motor is strong. The toy is well marked on the sides with copyright date & on the underside with patent & registration numbers & Made in Germany. The condition of the toy is excellent with very little evidence of play wear. There is a protective coating on the lithographed tin that was applied in the factory. The coating is visible on most surfaces & presents as a lightly textured surface. The coating is not visible on the bright blue platform on both ends. This blue surface is smooth & glossy. The toy displays very well & looks like it should be in an original box(but it is not). 092824/21BAJ(14)______________________________________________________________________________________________NEXT, THE IMPORTANT STUFF:*****************************IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ.
