Four Piece Furniture Doll Set. All Tin. Circa 1950's
About the Item
All tin; circa 1950's four piece doll furniture set, scaled to fit and accommodate all of your 8" or so dolls from that era, e.g. "Muffie, Ginnette, etc".
Display your dolls around this ensemble consisting of a clothing wardrobe, playpen, high chair, and a crib.
Crib
9" long x 5" wide x 6 1/2" high. Fabulous "Teddy Bear" and kitten graphics to both headboard and foot board; floral litho to sides, and bright and crisp checkered pink and white kitten pattern to bottom of crib (see images).
Playpen
7" square x 3 3/4" high. Blue and yellow with bears, dogs, zebras, and elephants decorating the base, on a blue backdrop.
Wardrobe
6" wide x 3 3/4" deep x 7 1/2" high
Decorated in green and red bird and floral design on a yellow backdrop; doors slide back and forth to reveal hanging bar on which to hang doll clothes, along with a top shelf.
High Chair
3 1/2" wide x 4" deep x 8" high
Little Teddy Bear on back of chair; movable tray goes up and down to place doll in or out of the high chair
The "J.Chein" logo is prevalent everywhere (see images) indicating "Made in U.S.A." manufacture and J. Chein & Co. designer and maker----not a knock off.
I have been collecting and dealing toys for over 40 years and this is the best example of this set I have seen.
The condition is excellent plus with no restoration or touch up paint of any kind;
no fading---the colors are bright and crisp; and the lithographs of animals are sharp and completely intact. All in all, this is a rare find, locating all four pieces together, and then to have them in such nice condition.
Note: The measurements stated in this "description" of each individual piece are accurate; the "overall" 14" x 14" x 8" stated in the "heading" is for shipping purposes.
Note: After 40 plus years of dealing and collecting toys and children's playthings, I am justly qualified to guarantee and present the authenticity of antique and vintage toys; important considering the fakes and reproductions in the marketplace

Vintage Tin Wind-up Toy "Clown in A Barrel" by J Chein & Co. American Circa 1935
By J. Chein & Co.
Located in Incline Village, NV
Made by J. Chein & Company Circa 1935 in New York City; originally inventoried as #258 (same number as similar looking Popeye toy dated 1932) and was named "Mechanical Clown Barrel Walker". The name of the maker "Chein" is stamped as a logo to the rear of the barrel (see image). This is one of the earlier toys that Chein made.
The lithography and hand paint are in gorgeous original condition with bright colors of red and gold to the barrel, flesh tones to the clown, who sports a multi colorful smiling face.
The toy works great; simply wind the attached key wind in the back 1/2 revolution; place on the hard surface----the clown waddles across the floor, back and forth, while shaking his head to and fro (see accompanying video with this listing to see it work)
In addition to being quite a scarce toy it is even more difficult to find in this fine condition. Often times the head is lacking or replaced from rough usage and surface rarely maintains this beautiful finish. This particular example is completely original with no restorations, repairs, or touch up paint of any kind. There is a small 5/8" superficial indentation to the front top of barrel (see image). This would make a proud addition to any collection of vintage toys or Americana.
Dimensions: 7 1/2" high x 3 1/4" wide x 4" deep

Provenance: From a recently acquired West Coast collection of fine quality tin toys.

Vintage Free Wheeling Green Lithographed All Tin Racing Car. French, Circa 1930
Located in Incline Village, NV
Circa 1930's free wheeling green lithographed all tin racing car, with attached pressed steel driver; it is probably of French manufacturer (the only time I have seen for sale was from a French toy dealer). This scarce toy has markings resembling early racing cars with the streamlined style graphics in yellow and green; standard grill; exhaust four manifolds to each side, and a spare tire attached to the rear; looks like an early Le Mans type car with the spare (see images). Other markings include the number "3:" on each side; "510 x 1" on the rear tire"; and probably the makers mark and logo, which I can't identify, on the top right behind the driver (see images).
Not being a wind-up or a friction toy, this racing car was pushed across the floor by hand or/and used as an accessory in a toy train layout...
