Description
9" (23 cm.) The colorfully-lithographed tinplate peacock has brilliant designs, hinged brown legs with web feet, and three-panel tail feathers. When wound, he proudly steps forward, his tail feathers fan out gracefully and then lift for all to see, then lower again and fold to form a single fan. When closed, the tail is 3 1/2", and when open it is 8". Excellent condition, lithograph beautifully preserved, mechanism functions perfectly. Germany, Blomer and Schuler, circa 1920.
