1960s Horikawa Japan Battery Operated Super Space Capsule Litho Tin Toy with Pilot

  

SCARCE - 1960's S. Horikawa Japan Battery Operated Super Space Capsule Tin Lithographed Toy as shown in our photos. It stands 9 1/4" high with a base diameter of 5 1/2". Famous lithograph as only you could find from Japan in the 60's.

We believe when working it would move across the floor turning side to side as the doors would open to reveal the interior along with the pilot and his camera. The on off button on the back side would control the battery use however, over the years the compartment oxidized somewhat and will need some attention if you want this space capsule to function as it did when new.
