$675.00 for the set of 24 slides 

A gorgeous, complete set of magic lantern slides, retelling the story of PETER PAN in glorious color, was a favorite form of entertainment in the Victorian and Edwardian nursery. . Each slide is 3 1/4" square. Two thirds of the original box holds the slides - unfortunately the main part of the lid is missing. The slides were made in England at the turn of the century. Condition is excellent.

Really stunning lithography on this little tin bank. 3" high and roughly 4 1/2" wide oval shape.One side has a scene of children playing with toy soldiers. The other side shows children directing animals onto a Noah's ark they are launching in a pond. Their little dog seems to want to join in the fun. Lanterns hang from the branches above them. The colors are vibrant, the condition is excellent. The rim of the lid (this was most likely a candy tin which was used as a bank when the candy was gone)has the complete alphabet and the top of the lid teaches the importance of saving and also retains the coin slot. The bottom has its closure in place. There is no makers' or product mark. I suspect the tin is English, dating from the teens or the twenties. It is really lovely.

This delightful Jacobs Christmas biscuit tin combines so may wonderful details. First it is a penny bank. then a fortune teller, the spinner works beautifully, then it has wonderful scenes of anthropomorphic bunnies at a Christmas ball. The lithography is gorgeous and the colors are bright. It is in lovely condition. It stands abut 7 3/4" to the top of the arch, the width 4 1/4" at the widest point and the depth 2 3/4" at the deepest point. We forgot to photograph one side panel which shows Mother Bunny adjusting her daughter's coat, with Poppa Bunny looking on, before she enters the coach which is to bring her to the ball.The whole thing is a whimsical delight. Sorry, the little key to the bottom of the bank is missing.

Britains elephant ride group produced post war - 1950's.The pieces are in excellent condition.The group consists of the Indian elephant, the howdah, the correct boy and girl and the keeper astride.

If you are interested, I also have the short and long stride (one shown) keepers available in perfect condition.

$2200.00 

This 1930's Kingsbury fire truck is a most impressive toy. It measures about 36" in length at the maximum.The width is about 9 1/2". It has been in storage since the early 40's. The condition is very good. I have tried to take as many pictures as possible so that you can judge the condition. It needs a very good dusting. It all is original - the only exception I can see is possibly the string that is used in raising the ladders.The fire bell is intact and works, however the string that connected to the mechanism must have disintegrated and was not replaced. There is play wear, but the color is good and most of the silver and gold paint detailing is there. There are 4 ladders and the extension ladder. The tires are round and in very nice condition. There is no peg in the seat for a driver, so I assume there was no driver with this toy.

A lithographed tin tray showing a tea party attended by cartoon characters which I have been unable to identify. The mice eyes remind me of the early Mickey and Minnie eyes that were pie shaped. The overall condition is good but the border shows signs of wear. The dating is 1920's - 1930's. The color is very good. The width with handles is 7 5/8", The height is 5 1/2".The back is the typical green color of the era and has some wear and a little rust.

$195.00 

This toy basset hound undulates as it is pulled. It is a delightful image of the dog, tongue hanging out, lithographed on heavy cardboard. From its head to the tip of its tail it wiggles as it is pulled because of its sectional construction. It is marked "Wilder Mfg.Co. Patent, and I'm pretty sure the next word is Pending". The word is slightly obscured by one of the two sets of wooden wheels the dachshund uses to travel. My guess is that the toy probably dates from the '40's or earlier. The only information I have been able to find about Wilder Mfg. is that they also made Tiddlywinks sets. The toy is in very good condition-no paper loss, some minor wear at the various hinges(one hinge has been very carefully repaired). Fully extended the dog is about 22 1/2" long and 7 1/2" tall. The wheels are about 2 1/8" in diameter.

$75.00 

This piggy bank is a cream color with a sponged design of terracotta, blue and brown.While I have often heard this type of pottery bank ascribed to Roseville, I have also seen similar banks identified as made in Vienna. Both designations agree that it dates to the early 20th century. This size appears to be more unusual. 4 1/4" long by 3 3/4" tall. There is glaze wear on the ear tips (more on the right than the left), a little bit on the snout and some on the bottoms of the trotters. This piggy has a lovely winsome look.
