1950's THE HAPPY FIDDLER CLOWN TIN LITHO CIRCUS CARNIVAL CONEY ISLAND JAPAN TOY

  

This listing is for a fully functional BATTERY OPERATED THE HAPPY FIDDLER CLOWN VIOLINIST w/box as shown. It is in excellent - near mint condition. Colors are clear & bright. Litho, tin, clothing & plastic parts are nice & clean. When switch is turned on he does the correct 4 actions as follow: (1) His body sways from right to left, (2) Head moves from side to side.

(3) Right hand vigorously moves the bow across the original violin, (4) A screeching violin sound is produced. This toy has been tested and works fine. Battery compartment is mint as are the connections. It is listed on page 88.

It is a 1950's era toy made by the Alps Co. The original box is included. It is in average condition showing signs of shelf wear and a number of tape repairs. Still, it does display well. This would make an nice addition to any collector of B.

A cool musical toy for anyone's collection. I will be posting many other interesting toys for parts in the next couple months starting at a penny in an effort to clean up my office. I will also be listing many excellent - mib condition toys with "best offer" options. I have other 1950's & 1960's battery operated & mechanical wind-up toys to list. Take a look, you may find an old memory from the past.
