Description

5". A brightly lithographed tin pig with rocking base has colorful blankets, curly tail, and is being ridden by a red and blue suited clown that is loosely pin-jointed to the clown. When coil-spring wound, the pig rocks back and forth and the clown bounces up and down in an amusing manner. Germany, circa 1920. Excellent condition, mechanism functions well.
