About the Item
Cute, small and vintage 1930's ferris wheel, crank driven, and all original children's tin toy. There are four children riders, each in a separate carriage. To operate: hold the toy steady with one hand (see attached video) and with the other hand rotate the crank forward or backwards and the ferris wheel will revolve around while the carriages rock back and forth. I've not seen this toy before, but it is probably British or American, definitely mid 1930's as per the lithographed figures.
Dimensions: 7" high x 6" wide x 3" deep
It is in completely all original condition with no repairs and no repaint or touch up of any kind and would make a nice addition to a toy collection or stand alone folk art item.
Note: After 40 plus years of dealing and collecting toys, I am justly qualified to guarantee and present the authenticity of antique and vintage toys and children's playthings; important considering the fakes and reproductions in the marketplace
it would behoove an enterprising collector, dealer, or decorator to take advantage of the opportunity to buy as many of the vintage tin toys that I have listed for sale; it would create an immediate quality collection, as most of these toys came, either from a long time premium California collection or from my own shelves. It would take quite some time and effort to accumulate toys this clean, authentic, original, operable and in excellent condition.

View AllMid-19th Century American Spinning Wheel
Located in Incline Village, NV
All original American spinning wheel, circa 1860, probably New England; with original flywheel and bobbin. The flywheel (drive wheel) consists of 14 original turned spindles; the treadle and bobbin "holds" are made of hand forged iron, as is the connector from treadle to drive wheel (see images).
