1940s-50s Wind Up Toy Celluloid Toy Baseball Player For Sale

---

This sale is for an old wind-up toy that still works. It is a celluloid baseball player and comes with the original box (the box is old, dingy, coming apart and in poor condition) and the original key for winding (the key is rusty). When you wind him up (I only wound him a little - didn't want to break it) he goes forward then stops and turns and goes to the side and on and on. This originalbox shows a picture of the baseball player with his arms up as if to catch the ball, but this toy does not put his arms up. He is jointed at the shoulders and the arms move, and the elastic holding the arms is a little loose from age. On the back it is marked "Made in Occupied Japan" right in the celluloid andthat is also stamped on the bottom of the box.The toymeasures about 5" tall and there are no dents, but I think he needs a gentle cleaning - I will leave that to the buyer. On his left shirt sleeve, there is an Y imposed over an N (like it is from a New York team)! Please email me with any questions. Combine sales to save on shipping. Insurance will be required on this item. Thanks for looking!
