Description
6.5" (17 cm.) A pressed tin figure of a girl with hand-painted detail of costume and bonnet has support frame with four revolving legs under her billowing skirt. A two wheeled delivery cart is attached to her arms, and when the cart is string-cord pulled, it causes the cart wheels to move, which causes the girl's leg system to revolve and she appears to realistically walk along, pulling the cart. Structurally excellent, string needs replacing, paint is original and well retained on girl, worn on cart. Possibly Gunthermann, circa 1885.
