Vintage Wind-Up Toy, Circa 1950 "Smiling Boy Polishing Boots" Rare
Located in Incline Village, NV
This is a very rare toy that I have not seen an example of before, and judging by it's action and appearance, I would venture to say it is post war, probably made in Japan for the American market (boy looks very American). I have called it "Smiling Boy Polishing Boots" which resembles the clockwork movement. To operate: hold the toy in the left hand with thumb on chest and then; wind up attached original key with the right hand several times; and release. With a smiling face, the boy will roll his head back and forth, while diligently shining his black boots, using an up and down motion with his right hand. The toy works quite well and will go on for some time. It is made up of several materials. The head, hands, and shoes are made of composition; it has a tin body; the clothes jersey, hat, and "falling" trousers" are made of fabric. The toy is in good original condition; some wear to boy's hat and jersey in back (see images), a slight "bend" to tinplate in the rear; but for the most part, the toy is very sturdy, works well, has a nice appearance, and wonderful charisma.
This is a charming rare toy that operates as it should, and is a "must have" for collectors of post-war vintage wind up toys...

Vintage Japanese Tin Space Toy Mechanical Bank, Circa 1950's Rare
Located in Incline Village, NV
Japanese tin mechanical bank features a rocket launcher mounted on the top surface of the body which fires a missile (penny or coin) into outer space, as represented by a globe like sphere. The graphics to the base and sphere are quite bright, colorful, and imaginative, especially considering the date of the toy (1950's); with rockets, flying saucers, launchers, and a radar tower. The globe is grey with planet like rings and images depicting outer space.
The bank operates by pulling back on the spring like launcher until it locks into place; place a penny in the basket; press down on the lever at the base of the launcher. (I have provided a video to observe the operation and action----see below). Coins are removed via the key lock trap with the original key. "Made in Japan" is stamped on the base, albeit of an unknown manufacturer (see image). The toy bank is in completely original and excellent condition, with no paint touch up, and no repairs.
This toy is from my own collection and I have had it for over 35 years and have not seen another example.
Dimensions: 7 1/4" long x 3 7/8" wide x 5" high
