7" (18 cm.) Seated in a rickshaw with bright yellow wheels is a Japanese lady wearing blue lithographed kimono, obi, and holding a movable fan in her hands, a movable umbrella above her head. The rickshaw is pulled by a man with green jacket imprinted with EPL (Ernst Paul Lehmann) logo, pink pants, slippers, and yellow slouch hat. When coil-spring wound, the wheels turn, he walks briskly along, the lady's umbrella twirls and she fans herself. Both their heads nod with the movement. Marked Lehmann. Excellent condition, mechanism functions well. Comments: Lehmann's EPL model 773, circa 1920, described by Cieslik in Lehmann Toys book as "perhaps his daintiest tin toy", this being the earlier slouch hat model, and having at least six movements.
