EXCEPTIONAL AND EARLY WOODEN STEIFF ROOSTER ON ECCENTRIC WHEELS.

This wonderful wooden rooster pull toy is made from three pieces of carefully cut wood. The bird itself is delightfully and authentically painted in greens, tans, and golds. He has black dimensional eyes and a playful red comb and waddle. He is mounted upon a metal carriage with four green eccentric wheels. He also sways back and forth in a see-saw manner; the overall effect of him in motion is simply charming. Rooster retains his Steiff button, which is skillfully placed near where his ears would be, if he had any. Rooster appeared in the Steiff line from 1919-1941 in this size only. SIZE: Overall 7-1/2″ h. PROVENANCE: From a fine collection. CONDITION: Light paint chips on edges, wheels with minor wear, comes with original pull cord (detached) otherwise very good. 1-14590 (400-600) – Lot 1403
