A wonderful pair of matched toys coming directly from a Maine attic and donated to Goodwill Industries of Northern New England with all proceeds benefiting the organization. Both toys have a fair amount of attic dust/dirt and a good cleaning would bring out the hidden luster beneath. Normally, the fine chain from the horses to the whiffle tree are long missing, but in this case, a substantial amount of original chain is still present. Pumper lacking a rear figure. Ladder wagon lacking rear figure and butterflies to hold ladders in place. Seven original ladders are included, some with damage or loss. SIZE: 21″ l and 30″ l., respectively. CONDITION: Overall good to very good original condition with no apparent damage or repairs. 1-12532 (800-1,200)

CAST IRON “ARTIE” CIGAR CUTTER. A classic figural cast iron cigar store cutter, this one depicting a gentleman sitting atop a chimney and when cigar is clipped he lowers his right arm, pulling the cigar from his mouth and sticking his tongue out. A patent date of 1889 and produced by Erie Specialty Co. of Erie, PA. There are only 15-20 various cast iron figural cigar cutters known. This example is one of the larger, more elaborate examples. The finish is a black copper oxide and highlighted with red lettering on the word “Artie”. Extremely fancy iron casting to the base as well as front plate advertising Artie as the best cigar of the year. Clockwork mechanism to clipped cigar is intact and in working order. SIZE: Approx. 10″ t. CONDITION: Overall very good to fine, perhaps a light cleaning to remove green oxidation would further enhance the appeal of the cutter. 1-12526 (2,000-3,000)

GENERAL BUTLER STILL BANK. Modeled after the inept Civil War general and his alleged plundering of southern estates to line his own pockets, particularly in the city of New Orleans, this bank portrays a caricature of Butler’s face with a frog body. Typically toys replicated the social economic and political climate of the day. Such is the case with this bank. A rare and difficult bank to find, this bank is in original as-found condition including its trap. SIZE: 6-1/2″ h. CONDITION: Overall fair to good with many years of dust and dirt that accumulated on the paint. A good cleaning would certainly enhance the color and luster of this bank. 1-12274 (600-1,000)

TAMMANY BANK & CAST IRON FARM WAGON. Tammany bank by J&E Stevens depicting Boss Tweed pocketing your savings and a two horse stake body farm wagon (missing figure). SIZE: 6″ h and 14-1/2″ l respectively. CONDITION: Fair to good. 1-12258 (250-300)

KILGORE TAT AIRPLANE. Kilgore created some of the most lifelike, realistic airplanes manufactured by any other toy company. This realistic 3-engine passenger plane has a ribbed fuselage and wing. T.A.T., which stands for Transcontinental Air Transport, which was founded in 1928 and later merged with what became T.W.A., which after decades of operations is now defunct. This particular plane came in two colors: green with a yellow wing or red with a yellow wing. Plane was also very susceptible to damage/hairline cracks at rear rivet junction. Overall this plane is in need of a good cleaning. Right wheel cover is older iron replacement. SIZE: 13-1/2″ wingspan. CONDITION: Overall good to very good with some surface oxidation to left wing tip, particularly the underside. 1-12220 (800-1,200)

ARCADE BULLDOG MACK GASOLINE TRUCK. A classic cast iron toy, this particular truck came in a couple different versions. Normally found with a tin gasoline tank, this particular model is all cast iron. For obvious reasons, one being cheaper to produce with a tin tank, and second the toy being extremely heavy for a child. Toy also came with solid black rubber tires, cast iron hubs with thin white rubber tires, and this version that has cast iron spoked wheels. A very lifelike depiction, this toy is highly sought after by collectors. Enameled in red with gilt highlighting and the iron wheels with red spokes and simulated white painted tires. SIZE: 13″ l. CONDITION: Toy has had overall paint restoration, but appears to be free of any damage or repairs. 1-12528 (300-500)

BUDDY L ENGINE, TENDER, AND CATTLE CAR. In exceptional original condition, this is a great start to a Buddy L outdoor train. One not need every car, but just a few more pieces such as a tanker, boxcar and caboose, would make this a most wonderful set. The paint is vibrant and shiny on all three pieces with minimal wear to silver trim or the decals. It does not appear to have been cleaned or polished, but rather in just remarkable original condition. SIZE: Engine: 27″ l. Tender: 17-1/2″ l. Cattle Car: 20-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Very fine plus all original condition. 1-12140 (2,000-3,000)

11-PIECE BUDDY L OUTDOOR RAILROAD TRAIN. One cannot imagine a Buddy L train that could possibly as good as this particular example, having survived for over 80 years, this toy must have been for display purposes only and never used by a child. It is in virtually near mint, unplayed with condition, and rumored to have been purchased for a child who passed away shortly after it was acquired. The paint just glows, and if you can pardon the expression, it looks to be “still wet”. Sure, there may be a chip here and a rub there, one cannot express how pristine its condition is. It is truly stunning. Even the railroad track (of which four pieces are included) retains a substantial amount of black paint on top of the rails. Quite possibly this is for the collector who never thought of purchasing a Buddy L train, but the condition alone might alter one’s thinking. In short, this is for the person who wants the best of the best. The set was supposedly purchased with all cars. However, the extra cattle car with its original box and the yellow tanker will be sold in the subsequent lot. Only the original cardboard box is present for the cattle car in this lot and one wonders where the other boxes are. The two variant flat cars including the somewhat shorter version and the rare ore car is also included. SIZE: Engine & Tender: 42″ l, Caboose: 19″ l, Small flat car: 19″ l, Large flat car: 22″ l, Hopper: 22″ l, Gondola: 22″ l, Ore: 21″ l, Tank Car: 17″ l, Cattle car: 22″ l, Box Car: 22″ l for total of approximately 220″. CONDITION: As stated above. A few chips here and there. Loss to one die-cast coupler each on short flat car, gondola, and ore car. Set appears never to have been cleaned or polished. Just an absolutely fantastic train. 1-12136 (15,000-25,000)

BOXED BUDDY L OUTDOOR RAILROAD CATTLE CAR & YELLOW TANKER. These two items were purchased with the previous lot, but are being sold on their own. The boxed cattle car is in pristine condition. However, one side has a small amount of oxidation/paint loss, most likely occurring from moisture in the cardboard box in which it was stored. The reverse side is in near mint unplayed with condition. The yellow tanker is in exceptional original condition with a few chips here and there about the tank and most notable is chipping to ladder. One die-cast coupler shows distress with minor loss. SIZE: Cattle car: 22″ l, Tank car: 17″ l. CONDITION: As stated above. Some fading to original decals on tank car. 1-12136-1 (2,000-4,000)

GROUPING OF BUDDY L LITERATURE & 3 BUDDY L BOOKS. A four panel fold out color pamphlet displays a Buddy L train on a trestle along with several single cars. Reverse side shows some of the various work cars along with a picture of the mining set. Also includes a Buddy L color catalog approximately 30 pages in length from 1929 showing a number of their trucks, work accessories, and trains. Also includes Volumes I & II and price guides of Albert McCollough’s reference books. SIZE: Varies. CONDITION: Very good to near excellent. 1-12138, 1-12139 (200-300)

BUDDY L BUS. Of all the Buddy L toys produced over the years, this is perhaps one of the quintessential great pieces. Although other firms made buses, the Buddy L version stands alone. Great attention to the detailing from the open louvered hood vents to the seating within the dual spare tires, opening doors, dual real wheels, headlights are just a few of the details that make this a most appealing and sought after toy. The construction of this toy including the extra reinforcement on the underside of the roof allowed the child to give this toy and thorough workout and it would still endure heavy punishment in a child’s hands. SIZE: 28″ l. CONDITION: Overall this toy is in good to very good all original condition with uniform chipping/paint loss. 1-12137 (3,500-5,500)

BUDDY L STEAM SHOVEL. Truly in remarkable as-found all original condition, one wonders where the original box is. Oftentimes, collectors of pressed steel would have very little if any interest in this toy, but this particular example would stop you in your tracks and change your mind. The paint is just completely vibrant and shiny, the decal is largely intact with only a few nicks, and some wear to iron wheels but still retaining a substantial amount of original black paint. SIZE: 23″ l x 13″ h. CONDITION: Very fine plus to near mint. 1-12141 (300-400)

BUDDY L AERIAL LADDER TRUCK. When a child received this toy at Christmas, he truly must have been overjoyed. Not only was it a large and impressive piece of pressed steel to roll down the driveway, but he could use the extension ladders to rescue his sister’s doll from the top of the dresser. Quite a lot of toy, especially for that time period. Perhaps this is the reason so many have survived over the years. Surely these were passed from generation to generation to play with. The hydraulic pump action allows the ladder to shoot directly skyward and employing the crank on the side, the ladders would extend upward. A geared handle above the hydraulic pump would let you rotate the ladders in a circular motion. SIZE: 40″ l. CONDITION: Overall truck appears to be in original finish, which is fair to good. Ladders show a fair amount of loss to nickel finish. 1-12530 (300-500)

LINEMAR CHEVY FRICTION CAR. Sleek Japanese take on a 1950s American standard. Unusual orange/red body with yellow roof, lithographed striped front and back seats, chrome highlights and celluloid windshields. A real beauty. SIZE: 11″ l x 5″ w. CONDITION: Very good plus, original condition. Friction motor functional, but somewhat sluggish. 1-12255 (400-600)

MISC LOT OF PRESSED STEEL VEHICLES. Lot includes Structo log truck, Structo Farms livestock truck, Structo auto transport, two Lindstrom wind-up bumper cars and later Hubley flying circus die cast airplane with flip-up wings. SIZE: Varies. CONDITION: Very good plus with some light scratches. Lindstrom cars are generally good, untested. 1-12257, 1-12259 (300-350)

MISC LOT OF PRESSED STEEL VEHICLES. Lot includes Tonka State Hi-way Dept. truck, trailer and steam shovel, Tonka pick-up truck with trailer, Tonka aerial ladder truck and Marx (?) auto transport with four cars. SIZE: Varies. CONDITION: Overall very good plus with some light scratches. Auto transport is good to very good. 1-12253, 1-12254, 1-12256, 1-12261 (200-300)

OUTSTANDING BENTLEY PEDAL CAR. Fully restored, elaborate pedal car in the form of a Bentley open air roadster with such features as pneumatic tires and spare, louvered side vents, leather seat, faux rag top, spring suspension, battery operated headlamps, opening driver’s side door, fold-down split windshield (missing one glass), wood running boards, Shell oil can affixed to right running board and winged Bentley logo above front grill. Surely the envy the neighborhood kids. SIZE: 59″ l x 24″ w x 23″ h. CONDITION: Near excellent with just a couple minor paint chips. 1-12296 (4,000-6,000)

1929 GENDRON JORDAN PLAYBOY PEDAL CAR. Outstanding and rare early pedal car, one of the top of the line cars created by Gendron. Car features fancy crisscross front bumper, two glass and metal headlamps, license plate, wood grill with hand painted design and “Jordan” on grill. Fancy radiator cap, two side lamps, and driver side mounted spare tire with partial cover. Interior reveals adjustable steering wheel, lithographed dashboard with simulated gauges, and simulated brake lever on driver’s side. Large disc steel rims with thin rubber tires. Completed by nice luggage rack on rear of vehicle. SIZE: 50″ l. CONDITION: Overall very good with some minor dents, most notably on the hood and fenders. Top of hood displays paint oxidation/loss. 1-11935 (5,000-7,000)

1917 PEDAL CAR W/ CRANK. Very early pedal car in old red constructed of wood and tin with cast iron steering wheel and simulated cast iron on/off switch, two early wooden headlamps, and simulated hand crank on grill. Has four steel suspension springs and spoked rubber tires. Rear of vehicle sports covered wood toolbox. SIZE: 45″ l. CONDITION: Overall good with minor wear throughout, most notable to hood with general oxidation and wear. 1-11936 (1,200-1,800)

AIRPLANE PEDAL CAR. Scarce pedal vehicle in the form of an airplane painted in blue with yellow highlights. Steel wheels with rubber tires, removable wings and folding back wings, steel steering wheel, leather seat, and wooden propeller (replaced). SIZE: 40″ l. CONDITION: Overall good to very good, likely an early repaint. 1-11937 (1,200-1,500)

1958 MURRAY ATOMIC MISSILE PEDAL CAR. Fabulous and rare chain driven pedal car for every space-minded boy of the 1950s (chain now absent). This cruiser with wing shaped back is painted brown with white highlights have decals of rockets and flame decals shooting out of the bottom. Steel wheels with rubber tires, faux rocket control levers, steel steering wheel, and formed metal seat. Secondary lever on side attached to interior flapper to adjust noise level while riding (ala card in the spokes). SIZE: 44″ l. CONDITION: Very good with overall wear, scuffing and oxidation, most notably to nose and back wings. Front wheel may be a replacement. 1-11701 (600-1,200)

MCCORMICK FARMALL 400 TRACTOR PEDAL CAR. Painted red with dual front wheels and knobby back tires. Circa 1960s. SIZE: 39-1/2″ l x 28-1/2″ h x 18″ w. CONDITION: Generally good to very good. 1-12251 (200-300)

IVES CLOCKWORK HIPPODROME. A spectacular clockwork toy from the 19th century and pictured in the 1893 Ives Blakeslee jobber catalog. Perhaps of the handful of examples known to exist today, this is the finest all original example known. This toy has come fresh to the market from a Maine Estate and located just a short distance from James D. Julia Auctions. A most impressive toy due to the subject matter and the size. Probably one of the most finely paint decorated of American tin toys, the horses have an incredible amount of paint trappings about them and the chariot itself has two applied ormolu Roman-style figures on horseback. The lady driving the chariot is 8″ tall and is in remarkable, all original condition including her red cotton gown and felt hat. Typical of Ives, they used a stamped brass face mounted to a wooden molded dowel. We believe that this figure as well as the facial molding were only used on this particular toy. The tin chariot is enameled in blue with a yellow band and red pinstriping. Further decorations include a wreathed floral decal; front and center. When the toy is wound and proceeds forward, an ex-centric mechanism gives the effect of the horses running. Large, extremely fancy red cast iron wheels with smaller wheels at back to adjust for steering. Quite possibly the stringing of the horses is original to the toy. It’s improbable that a toy of this age and size is in such remarkable condition and one must assume that a child did not play with this toy nor did future generations of children play with this toy. There is speculation that this particular toy was inspired by visiting Barnum Bailey Circus which was close proximity to the Ives factory. At the circus, they had chariots or should I say hippodromes. A hippodrome (Greek: ??????????) was a Greek stadium for horse racing and chariot racing. The name is derived from the Greek words “hippos (?????; “horse”) and “dromos” (??????; “course”). The term is used in the French language and some others; hence, some present-day horse racing tracks are also called hippodromes, for example the Central Moscow Hippodrome. SIZE: 14″ l. CONDITION: Overall as discussed above, slight oxidation to one of the ormolu figures and some minor paint loss to black horse on his right front leg. It appears that something was resting against the toy on this side. However these minor losses are not offensive or distasteful. Tips of lances on ormolu figures are missing. 1-12531 (20,000-30,000)

IVES CLOCKWORK PREACHER. A wonderful toy from the latter part of the 1800s featuring a black gentleman preaching to the masses. This exceptional example came from England and as unusual as that sounds many American toys from this era found their way overseas to Europe. The wooden box is polychromed in an orange-red finish with vibrant yellow highlighting and brown accents. Toy is virtually in near mint, unplayed with condition and the clothing which often deteriorates with age is overall in pristine condition showing little signs if any of any fading and/or wear. The black figure has inset black pupiless glass eyes, wire rimmed glasses and a comical look about his face or a comical look about him. When the toy is wound and activated, he would lean forward slamming his right hand on the podium to make his point while turning his head from side to side glancing to the crowd that has gathered. SIZE: Approx. 10″ t. CONDITION: In very fine to near mint all original condition, some minor adjustments needed for figure to function properly. Clockwork mechanism is in working order, however lacking one small screw from left foot and wire from mechanism to body which enables figure to turn head. 1-12294 (3,500-5,500)

WOMEN’S RIGHTS ADVOCATE CLOCKWORK TOY ATTRIBUTED TO AUTOMATIC TOY WORKS. One could say that this is a political toy from the latter part of the 19th century. Toys often reflected the political and social climate of the period. This particular toy features a woman of color “up on the stump” seeking rights for women of the time period. An unusual as well as historical clockwork toy. When mechanism is activated this woman leans forward, slamming her hand on the podium as if to make her point, and then rises up, turning her head to survey those in attendance of her declarations. She, with her gutta percha head and inset beady glass eyes, stands in her original clothing on a natural stained box. This figure was also used on other clockwork toys, such as the clergyman, the preacher, and the stump speaker. Automatic Toy Works tended to polychrome the wooden boxes and, later on, Ives also produced these toys but generally in a natural finish to the walnut boxes. SIZE: 4″ w x approx. 10″ h x 5″ d. CONDITION: Overall very fine original condition, with slight dustiness to clothing. Clockwork mechanism is functional. 1-12562 (4,500-6,500)

EARLY AMERICAN TIN CLOCKWORK HORSE-DRAWN FIRE PUMPER. Directly out of an old New England estate, this toy is in as found, untouched all original condition. Although the paint is somewhat sparse, the gilt stenciling is largely intact and overall the white horses still retain a significant amount of their original paint. Unfortunately the tin driver has left his seat and is nowhere in sight. Mechanism is intact and in working order, but requires some lubrication. A wonderful and unique form, with some minor paint enhancement, mostly to the boiler area this toy would be a great addition to any clockwork or early American tin collections. SIZE: Approx. 15″ l. CONDITION: Overall fair to good. Most likely toy had a stack sitting over tin sleeve on top of boiler. 1-12533 (1,500-2,500)

CLOCKWORK IVES HORSE HEAD PERAMBULATOR. An extremely fine, all original toy circa last quarter of 19th century. Exceptional original condition including partial cardboard box with label. The boy simulates movement by pulling and pushing the wooden propeller rods giving the illusion that he is propelling the velocipede forward. More than likely this is a latter example as there is no steering mechanism which is normally found in front of the horse head with a wire changing direction of the front wheel. Paper label on rear of toy as well as on box indicates a patent date of 1873. Toy has been with the original family for decades and is in virtually unplayed with untouched condition. Family constructed a wonderful glass case to keep the toy in pristine condition. SIZE: Approx. 8″ l. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus with minor soiling to clothing. Unfortunately papier mache head has a vertical crack and separation at the seam. Tin wrap-around by boy has broken solder point on left side. Partial box (lacking bottom as is condition). 1-12512 (7,000-9,000)

LARGE GEORGE BROWN CLOCKWORK GIG. Very fine example of an all original, untouched American tin toy from the 1880s. This toy came in several versions: single horse, double horse or a small seated tin figure or a larger separate figure of composition and tin such as this example. Figure seems somewhat over-sized for the rest of the toy, but as previously discussed, the company at the time had an open artistic license of combining various features and in the end it all seemed to work. The boy has a wooden torso with a molded papier mache head and the arms and legs are a combination of tin and stamped brass. The cart itself is in dark blue with a fine yellow pinstriping and black edging. Typical decals on right, left and rear of cart further add to the appearance of this toy. Due to the size of the figure, the seat is hidden which is a scalloped backing painted in yellow and the boy himself is sitting on a red bench with black pinstriping. At the bottom right front of the cart is a small tin holder, that more than likely contained a whip for the horses. The horses, when the toy is activated imitate galloping by a rod attached to their rear foot and an ex-centric center wheel. Large wheels on the cart with a light copper wash and connected to the clockwork mechanism in the cart. A somewhat unusual feature of this example is on the front of the yoke, there is a vertical bar extending with chains going from horse to bar. SIZE: 17″ l. CONDITION: Overall very good to fine with uniform paint loss; mostly to horses and red yoke. Clothing on boy is completely original with some minor frailty and dustiness to clothing. 1-12401 (7,000-9,000)

LARGE GEORGE BROWN CLOCKWORK SULKY. An unusual form as well as size, this wonderful toy has great presence. Clockwork motor, similar in nature used in the velocipede and many other toys is contained under the elevated seating area of the jockey. Although this mechanism is visible, it blends in nicely and is not offensive. It is rare to have a sulky toy in this size, normally they are much smaller and more contained. A great deal of original paint remains with only some enhancement to the red on the jockey as well as the band on the horse. Clockwork mechanism tested and in functional condition. SIZE: 14″ l. CONDITION: Overall very good, original condition. White face of jockey appears to have touch-up as well. 1-12404 (3,000-4,000)

FALLOWS LADDER WAGON. Although diminutive in size, this toy has a large presence. Perhaps the four lights hanging off the coiled wires or the coloring or the oversized ladders make this a possibility. American tin toys let the unreasonable or inane or mis-proportioned items to be combined and make a toy and yet everything looks aesthetically correct. This particular toy has an abundance of charm and the toy appears to be in all original, untouched condition. The various colors employed: white, red, blue mesh well together and perhaps if you had a loose American tin fireman standing next to it it would finish the picture. When the toy is pulled about the floor by the child, the rear ex-centric axle strikes an iron ball which in turn strikes the bell. SIZE: Approx. 7-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall good to very good, all original condition. 1-12402 (3,000-4,000)

EARLY AMERICAN TIN BELL TOY WITH DRUMMER BOY & HORSE. Attributed to Altholf Bergmann this toy has a unique and interesting form to it. With the horse in the lead, the drummer boy is pacing behind him. The drum itself is quite unique and is impressed molded tin with stars in the pattern. Normally one would expect to find a flat base, but instead a convex styled base with cast iron heart shaped ex-centric wheels thus when the toy is pulled along the floor, you have a unique lifelike motion. Toy is largely in original paint with the exception of the white and flesh tone on the figure and the red on the horse (saddle band) and some possible enhancement to the yellow. SIZE: Approx. 10-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall toy is good to very good. 1-12405 (2,500-3,500)

AMERICAN TIN HORSE ON WHEELED PLATFORM. A fine, small American tin toy on a fanciful sculpted and embossed tin base with a prancing horse. Toy is in all original finish but has fading of the various black trappings. SIZE: Approx. 6-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall very good. Paint loss most significant on rear right side of horse. Split to tin of horse’s left front leg at hoof. 1-12317 (750-950)

GEORGE BROWN CONFECTIONERY WAGON. An unusual size with elaborate detailing to this Confectionery wagon. The different styled front kick board is of an unusual form normally found as just straight tin, but this is more sculptured and wavy. Nice tin appliques on either side of driver as well as an elaborate awning with extra trims covering the driver. Finely stenciled “Confectionery” on either side with a plethora of additional fanciful stenciling. SIZE: 14-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall good to very good with inpainting to wagon and horses. 1-12320 (3,000-4,000)

GEORGE BROWN EXPRESS WAGON. A fine, early example with unusual coloring and wiffle tree. Finished in dark green with yellow trims and interior painted salmon. Gold stenciling to sides but what’s more unusual is the silver lettering and pinstriping above and below. An embossed sculptured tin wiffle tree located directly under front kick board is an unusual feature not usually found on Express wagons. The seat is in a fixed position. Overall good to very good with uniform paint loss, chipping. SIZE: 19-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Front end attachment lacking and just in need of very minor repair. 1-12316 (3,000-5,000)

GEORGE BROWN EXPRESS WAGON. A fine, small open bedded wagon with “Express” stenciled on either side and drawn by a white horse. Toy appears to in all original finish with heavier wear to white horse, especially front legs. SIZE: 10″ l. CONDITION: Overall good. 1-12318 (900-1,100)

GEORGE BROWN ORION CLOCKWORK LOCOMOTIVE. When first glancing at this locomotive it seems lacking, awkward, strange. The large wheels are in the front with drive rods going to the pistons in the rear. Obviously a real life version of this locomotive must have existed, but to most of us we have never seen or heard of a locomotive like that. A wonderful example of ingenuity by George Brown and how they combined wood with tin and made it work. Even the wood on the yellow boiler front is heavily stenciled and being an early American railroad engine it has the typical huge smokestack. The tin boiler painted in dark blue and the yellow cab, red roof are heavily stenciled and the clockwork mechanism is concealed within the boiler. When wound the toy will propel forward and under the engine cab is a small wheel that will allow the train to proceed in various directions. Overall the condition is good to very good. SIZE: 9-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall outstanding and all original. There was an aged, somewhat amateur repair/resoldering of engine cab roof to sides with some minor paint loss incurred. 1-12403 (3,000-4,000)

GEORGE BROWN “ECLIPES” CLOCKWORK LOCOMOTIVE. When first glancing at this locomotive it seems lacking, awkward, strange. The large wheels are in the front with drive rods going to the pistons in the rear. Obviously a real life version of this locomotive must have existed, but to most of us we have never seen or heard of a locomotive like that. A wonderful example of ingenuity by George Brown and how they combined wood with tin and made it work. Even the wood on the boiler front is heavily stenciled and being an early American railroad engine it has the typical huge smokestack. The tin boiler and cab are heavily stenciled and the clockwork mechanism is concealed within the boiler. When wound the toy will propel forward and under the engine cab is a small wheel that will allow the train to proceed in various directions. Overall the condition is good to very good with most loss primarily to tin pieces. Toy is formally from the Barenholtz Collection and an oval sticker on the underside confirms this. SIZE: 9-1/2″ l. CONDITION: As stated above. Cab roof has loose solder joint on right side. 1-12319 (1,750-2,250)

LIONEL #8 TROLLEY. Many of Lionel’s early production pieces on today’s standard and in comparison with the Golden Era (1930s) are somewhat primitive and lacking detail yet they are very unique and have an abundance of charm about them. This particular trolley, when one sits down and studies it is very lifelike and if one were to compare the real piece to this toy they would be quite similar. Common saying at the time must have been pay as you enter on all trolleys. Stenciled on the side of this piece is “No. 8 Pay As You Enter”. Embossed on the underframe is “Lionel Mfg. Co. NY”. Enameled in dark green with yellow clerestory, windows and doors. Electric motorized unit on front truck. This is the largest of Lionel trolleys. SIZE: 19-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall good to very good condition. Appears to have some paint touch-up on front edge of green roof and one small touch-up spot further back on green roof. 1-12489 (4,000-6,000)

9-PIECE AMERICAN OUTLINE BING STEAM LOCOMOTIVE AND ASSORTED FREIGHT CARS. A desirable early 18″ cast iron American outline Bing loco, 4-4-0 marked P.R.R. on tender, circa 1910. The set is accompanied by four various lithographed boxcars, and a hopper car (hand painted), gondola, and caboose. A nice assortment of very nice boxcars from various railroads (P.R.R., Illinois Central, B & O, and Central Railroad of New Jersey. Quite obviously, this set by Bing was intended to be shipped for the U.S. market. Engine has a cow catcher as well as a bell, which were usually only employed in American versions and not the Europeans. A most attractive set and makes a fine display. SIZE: Approximately 84″ total. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus, except gondola, which is good to very good. 1-12502 (2,500-4,500)

LARGE SCALE MODEL OF A TROLLEY CAR. An absolutely fantastic large scale (4″ track gauge) European style enclosed street trolley car. Undercarriage of heavy gauge steel with an intricate amount of detailing to said undercarriage/framework of this trolley. The body is constructed of wood with a full interior including a multitude of seats, trolley controls, entrance way adornments, glass clerestory and trolley pull. Pull is geared in a fashion that by pulling a string at either end it can be reversed hence when the trolley reaches its final destination it just reverses its course as the conductor walks to the other end. This piece was probably produced by a craftsman with machinist abilities and most likely made in the 1920s or early 30s. Wonderful period paint with some alligatoring to finish. Piece is most unique and a great addition for those who appreciate and understand finely made and detailed railroad memorabilia. SIZE: Approx. 36″ l x 14″ to rooftop.

BIAGGI O-GAUGE “COCK O’ THE NORTH” ENGINE & TENDER. Of Italian manufacture, this particular electric engine is relatively rare and the primary market focus was for the English train enthusiast. An electric engine with a 2-8-2 wheel configuration, this train ran on 3-rail track. Perhaps one of the most interesting features of this train is the fascinating Caprotti valve gears along the front end of the loco behind the steam chest. “Cock o’ the North” was one of the many engines operated on the London Northern England Railroad (LNER). The train itself, circa 1950s appears to have had minimal usage as very little wear is evident on wheels or electric engine receptors. Original Biaggi decals are intact on engine cab, steam chest, and tender. SIZE: 29-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall very fine to near mint, a light cleaning/polishing would bring out the vibrancy of the green and black paint, making this a most stunning piece. 1-12490 (3,000-5,000)

O-GAUGE LIONEL “BABY BLUE COMET” SET. According to the consignor, this set comes from the original owner who had this toy as a child, and was only allowed to play with it on special occasions, only being set up at Christmas and immediately put back afterwards. The trains were later found in storage by the consignor’s parents and given back to him on his 40th birthday in 1972. The three passenger cars appear to be in very fine original finish with nickel plated trims. However the 263 loco and tender appear to have old paint restoration. According to the consignor, the frame on the engine had deterioration and in 1972 the engine was given to someone for repair. Included are some of the original boxes, but they are in poor condition and missing several end flaps. CONDITION: As described above. 1-12538 (1,000-1,500)

LIONEL GG1 #2332 WITH 5 ALUMINUM PASSENGER CARS. The classic 5-striped GG1 with single engine, the locomotive operated out of the Philadelphia area and was one of the most powerful and dynamic locomotives ever produced by General Electric in Western Pennsylvania. Production of these workhorses started in the mid 1930s and continued in operation through the mid 1970s. Massive in size, one was never sure because of the design whether it was coming or going. It operated off electric pantographs, these huge beasts became obsolete and were replaced by more efficient locomotives. This particular toy train is the earlier model produced by Lionel being a single motor and stamped 2332. Included are 5 decaled aluminum passenger cars including Alexander Hamilton, observation car, Betsy Ross Vistadome, William Penn passenger car, Molly Pitcher passenger car, and a Railway Express baggage car. These particular passenger cars have cast metal trucks. SIZE: Engine approx 14″ l. Passenger cars approx 15-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Engine overall is very good.

BING 4-4-0 EUROPEAN OUTLINE LOCOMOTIVE & TENDER. Appears to be an all original clockwork lithographed Bing 1-gauge engine and tender in very good original condition. Loco retains original marker lights on either side of boiler, and all side rods and other accessories are intact. Tender is a four wheel tender with lithographed pinstripes and simulated coal load. SIZE: Overall 19″ l. CONDITION: Clockwork mechanism tested and appears to be functional. Overall very good plus, some minor chipping, but uniform throughout. 1-12491 (700-900)

4-6-2 SCRATCH BUILT FRENCH LOCOMOTIVE AND TENDER. A finely detailed and well constructed (and most likely scratch built from a kit), this elaborate French style locomotive of unknown vintage (perhaps mid- to late 20th century) has great detail and appeal. Running on O scale with an electric engine using 3-rail track, this locomotive also has extremely intricate side rods and double pistons into steam chest. Accompanied by its 8-wheel tender and is as intricate as the engine. SIZE: 20″ l. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus, lacking one “bumper” on front of engine. 1-12499 (300-500)

DELTON LOCOMOTIVE WORKS EARLY AMERICAN OUTLINE LOCOMOTIVE AND TENDER. A fine replica of an 1850s-60s 2-8-0 American outline locomotive and tender that tamed the west. The classic locomotive with extended cowcatcher, oversized lamp on boiler front, and early style bellowing smokestack make this a most appealing train. Obviously this piece was utilized by the Denver & Rio Grande during the mid- to late 1800s and this particular example is nearly identical to the real thing. Enclosed within its original box with its original paperwork, the toy is in very fine to near mint condition. SIZE: 27″ l. CONDITION: Toy appears almost never to have been removed from its original box or operated. 1-12497 (300-500)

BOUCHER “POLLY-WOG” SPEED BOAT. Boucher manufactured a number of different toys from the late teens until the mid 30s. This particular example of a pond boat has a double cylinder outboard motor affixed to the rear of this speed boat. Steam mechanism is contained within the hull and covered with an aluminum sheath and three air ventilators. Constructed mainly of wood and the name “Polly-Wog” emblazoned upon the sides along with the manufacturers name, the sheath covering the engine is of polished aluminum and the three ventilators are of stamped brass. One can only imagine the joy of that young man and his father going to the park on Sunday and seeing their speed boat glide effortlessly across the tranquil pond shooting rapidly by the pond sailboats that are peacefully navigating the waters. Boucher manufactured toys but not in significant quantities. In as found, condition with complete Boucher decal affixed to aluminum sheathing. Boat appears complete and is in remarkable original finish. SIZE: 23″ l. CONDITION: Some flaking to “Polly-Wog” decals on either side. Overall very good to near excellent. 1-12298 (2,000-3,000)

Additional Information: We’ve been asked if the skittles are the exact original ones that came with this exact container. There is no way we can guarantee this, they are antique and of the correct style and are a spectacular set.

GERMAN INDIAN SKITTLES CONTAINER WITH BRAVES. Without a doubt, of all the various German skittles (AKA 9-pins), this particular example is the most visually stunning and aesthetically appealing. The chief in full headdress with braided hair cascading down either side of his face is bare chested with Indian jewelry and simulated leggings with feather adornments. Perhaps one of the largest of all 9-pins containers (approximately 29″ l.) his open cutaway back would contain the various Indian themed pins. Obviously the kingpin was the chief with full headdress cascading down his back. Polychromed in vibrant colors with exceptionally intricate molding to the facial features make this a piece that all who see are sure to comment on. Retaining original paper label on underside marked “Made in Germany” with most likely a six digit product number. Stamped tin wheels allow this toy to function not only as a 9-pins container, but one for a child to pull along the floor. The Indian pins themselves are affixed to wooden platforms, and when set up in a V-formation, the child would roll the ball to knock over as many as he could. Due to the frailty and size of these toys, it’s amazing that they have survived and still remain structurally sound and overall in excellent condition. This is one of only a few known examples in existence today. In as-found, untouched condition, a light cleaning would surely bring out the luster of the paint and make this toy even more vibrant. SIZE: 29″ l. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus, some paint loss/wear especially noticeable to a couple of the feathers in the headdress. Overall paint is largely intact with no restoration and/or repairs. 1-12473 (15,000-25,000)

PAPIER MACHE ELEPHANT SKITTLES. Most likely of German manufacture, this set features eight pachyderms and their trainer who obviously would be the “king pin”. The elephants themselves are well molded and in the standing position, some with raised trunks. All the figures are affixed to a small wooden base and the “king pin” is dressed in circus-style clothing; black boots, green pants and red coat with gold decoration. SIZE: Ranges from 6″ to 7″. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus. One elephant shows some minor paint loss to trunk and foot. 1-12468 (2,000-3,000)

GUNTHERMANN HAND PAINTED GERMAN TIN LADY. Very elegant hand painted German tin toy from the early 20th century featuring a lady in a tin molded blue layered skirt with a black jacket holding a muff in her hands. When the toy is wound up, she realistically moves forward by means of a clockwork mechanism enclosed in her skirt. As she is moving forward, she is jointed at the hips and she sways just a bit from side to side. Toy is in remarkable all original condition including her fur scarf around her neck which normally is missing. An exceptional toy with great presence and seldom found in such wonderful condition. SIZE: Approx. 8″ t. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus with minimal wear and/or chipping to the figure. 1-12459 (2,000-3,000)

BUSTER BROWN & TIGE GERMAN WINDUP TOY. A most unusual form, this toy is somewhat reminiscent of the Lehmann climbing Miller. When the toy is wound and activated, Buster Brown or Tige will climb up the pole and drop and the reverse figure will climb upwards. There were a handful of various Buster Brown Tige toys and perhaps this is one of the most unusual and seldom found examples. Toy appears to be in all original condition with typical paint schemes used for Buster Brown and Tige. Due to the frailty of the toy, it’s amazing that any of these would have survived. Its unique form and the subject matter make this a most appealing and desirable piece. SIZE: 13″ t. Base is approx. 4″ x 4″. CONDITION: Overall good to very good condition. Minor solder repair on rear of toy. 1-12458 (1,500-2,500)

BUSTER BROWN & TIGE WINDUP GERMAN TIN BELL RINGER. Buster Brown and his faithful friend were commonplace fixtures in the earlier part of the 20th century and they advertised shoes, bread, biscuits and many other commercial goods. Many toys were made depicting these two characters and it’s always interesting to see the various toy maker creations. Who would ever think Buster Brown and Tige would be standing at a lamp pole ringing a bell?! The ingenuity of the toy manufacturers and their ability to create such whimsical pieces certainly these creations must have had some appeal to the children at that time. A four inch platform with Buster Brown and Tige standing at the pole and when the mechanism is activated the jointed arms on either figure will ring the bell. SIZE: Approx. 8″ t. CONDITION: Toy appears to be in untouched, all original condition with vibrant painting and uniform wear. Overall very good condition. 1-12455 (1,500-2,500)

RARE BUSTER BROWN TIN WINDUP TOY. An exceptionally rare and unusual hand painted Buster Brown German tin windup toy. An unusual feature of this toy is the lad winking his left eye. Similar in nature to another toy one usually sees, this toy also has a ball in each hand, and when activated, his arms swing about, giving the illusion of juggling. All the while, he vibrates about the table, balancing on his lead feet. Typical Buster Brown garb and hairstyle, this is an exceedingly rare toy with very few examples in existence today. Mechanism tested and in functional condition. SIZE: 6-1/2″ h. CONDITION: In all original paint with uniform paint loss throughout. Overall good to very good. 1-12456 (1,250-1,750)

BUSTER BROWN PAPIER MACHE LANTERN. A stunning likeness of Buster Brown, this fabulous German papier mache lantern is polychromed in vibrant colors with terrific attention to the painted facial features. In virtually near mint, unplayed with condition, it is doubtful a candle was ever utilized within his head. A bale wire handle attached to his head would allow the child to walk about with a candle lit and Buster’s glowing eyes leading the way through the darkness. Truly a unique and rare item, and highly sought after by collectors of Buster Brown and those who seek similar Halloween memorabilia. SIZE: Approx. 3-3/4″ h, excluding wire handle. CONDITION: Near mint original condition. 1-12461 (800-1,200)

TWO BUSTER BROWN SCHOENHUT ROLY POLYS. The Schoenhut firm produced a wide variety of roly poly’s. The larger versions had movable heads and while they employed the same style body, they just changed the paint decoration as well as the heads. The larger of the two (9-1/2″) has a more pronounced Buster Brown style haircut than the smaller version. However, the smaller version retains its original cloth Schoenhut label with patent date of 1908. The firm produced these for 20 some years but by examining both rolys it is evident that these were earlier versions as the painting is much finer and more detailed than later versions. Both roly’s appear to be in all original, untouched condition. SIZE: 9-1/2″ and 6″ respectively. CONDITION: As stated above; normal wear to both. Smaller roly has some paint loss to rear of head. 1-12480 (450-650)

BUSTER BROWN & TIGE PAPER DOLL SET. Scarce litho set showing the popular character in his underclothes along with Tige in a pointed cap with four interchangeable outfits including Doughboy, sailor outfit, a winter color variation of his trademark outfit and of course his red shorts and top and various hats. Mounted with the original box and professionally framed making for a charming display. SIZE: 21-3/4″ w x 34-1/2″ h. CONDITION: Very good to excellent with minimal wear. Buster’s neck is creased slightly. 1-12477 (300-400)

This uncut/unused sheet has twelve bow ties to be affixed by the young party goers. SIZE: Sight Size: 17-1/2″ x 29-1/2″ h. CONDITION: Vibrant colors with obvious fold creases, but no apparent tears. 1-12285 (150-250)

FRAMED PIN THE BOW TIE ON BUSTER BROWN GAME. Printed on linen, it depicts the winking lad with his trusty sidekick Tige by the famed R.F. Outcault who also brought us the Yellow Kid. Somewhat larger than the previous lot, the detail is also somewhat more pronounced. The twelve bow ties are all cut out and separately matted in a wonderful framed display. Accompanied by its original box, a modern copy of a vintage photograph showing an example of this game at a little girl’s party and a vintage linen print of Buster made into a pillow. SIZE: 23-1/2″ w x 28″ h. CONDITION: Vibrant colors with obvious fold creases, wearing a little thin but no apparent tears. This set, however, shows signs of actual use with pin holes in the ties and various spots around the intended areas. 1-12479 (250-350)

SIX R.F. OUTCAULT/TUCK VALENTINES. Great Victorian era heart shaped heavy paper valentines, many with original cords and tassels. Even includes one picturing his most famous creation Buster Brown and his dog Tige. SIZE: Each is approx. 8″ to 8-1/2″ w. CONDITION: Generally very good with bright colors. Some show bends and creases. Most significant creasing appears on the Buster Brown example. 1-12478 (250-450)

Additional Information: We’ve been asked if the skittles are the exact original ones that came with this exact container. There is no way we can guarantee this, they are antique and of the correct style and are a spectacular set.

FABULOUS ROOSTER SKITTLE SET. Extremely large brightly multi-colored papier mache rooster with glass eyes riding on four cast iron wheels painted gold cradling a nine pin set in the form of chicks. Chicks are dressed as clowns; they are nestled in the rooster in the original excelsior. Breathtaking set of skittles. The set looks like it has hardly ever been played with if at all. SIZE: 19-1/2″ l x 15-1/2″ t. CONDITION: The rooster’s colors are bright and vibrant shows almost no wear. Typically these delicate works of art exhibit considerable damage, however, this example is simply extraordinary. A couple of minor chips on one side and a slight old crack on the left side. The Peeps are dirty but most are in near excellent condition. One would be hard pressed to find a better example. If you need a skittle this is the one. 1-12471 (8,000-10,000)

GERMAN CAMEL SKITTLE SET. An outstanding example of one of the several elaborate skittle sets produced in Germany during the early 20th century. Great detailing on the camel container with his back open to contain the nine pins. The camel in a lying position has what would be thought of as normal Middle Eastern drapings upon his back. The various figures themselves seem to be an odd mix but more than likely correct for this container. There is an Oriental gentleman, a Turkish gentleman, Scottish gentleman, Mexican gentleman, Spanish gentleman, Russian gentleman, Arab gentleman, Greek gentleman and a French woman aka “the queen pin”. SIZE: Approx. 19″ l. Figures are approx. 10-1/2″ t. CONDITION: Overall very good plus. Some inpainting to camels as well as figures. Wheels on camel appear to be replacements; one original wheel present. 1-12474 (4,000-6,000)

RARE FATHER CHRISTMAS TIN WINDUP TOY. Of German manufacture, circa 1920s with finely lithographed detail particularly to facial features. This toy is very similar in nature to the hand painted version most likely made by another company. This fellow is lithographed and stands on an embossed snow covered mica mount. When mechanism is activated, he raises his arms with a small decorated Christmas tree in one hand and his sack of toys in the other (showing heavy deterioration). SIZE: 6-1/2″ h. CONDITION: Overall very good plus, some minor scraping on right side of figure where arm brushed up against body. 1-12457 (1,500-2,500)

GERMAN HAND PAINTED TIN WINDUP CAROUSEL. In fabulous all-original condition, this circa late teens/early 20s toy features four lithographed animals with riders and a chariot with passengers. When the toy is wound and activated, it proceeds in a counterclockwise fashion while the music encased within plays a tune. The tin painted in cream with gold pinstriping,and airbrushed with blue, mauve, green, and orange further enhance the appeal of the toy. This was at a period of time when hand enameling of toys was becoming obsolete and lithographed tin would be the new wave of the future. The coloring and presentation of the animals (elephant, ostrich, dappled horses) would have been hard to duplicate and much more costly if they had been hand painted. Truly a wonderful and fanciful toy that not only appeals to toy collectors, but those who sit, watch, and listen. SIZE: 15″ h x 9″ dia. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus to near mint with a few paint chips and scattered dings. 1-12467 (1,000-2,000)

15″ MARKLIN ZEPPELIN. A classic toy manufactured in the earlier part of the 20th century by the Marklin firm. And this is the second largest size zeppelin the company produced. Toy was most lifelike and emulated the real thing right down to the gondolas and enclosed cabin on underside of the zeppelin. Clockwork motor contained within and when the toy is activated the rear propellers will spin. Typical of Marklin, great attention paid to detail and fine quality construction which is one of the reasons that Marklin toys are so highly sought after by toy collectors today. Clockwork mechanism is functional. SIZE: 15″ l. CONDITION: Overall very good condition with possible restoration. 1-12510 (4,000-6,000)

EARLY ROCK & GRANER LIVE STEAM LAUNCH. A fine early German live steam toy, circa late 19th century featuring an open launch with a live steam mechanism located in the center hull. Elaborate bow figurehead accents the center striped, finely decaled section along with the railed walkway and fenced in steam motor area. The hull bottom and decking has a copper finish with a black band at top of left and right sides. Live steam motor itself has a copper wash and black smokestack. Boat is a very rare and desirable model. Seldom do such Rock & Graner boats like this come to market. SIZE: 16-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Overall good to very good, possible areas of restoration. 1-12511 (6,000-8,000)

RARE DOLL ET CIE LIVE STEAM SPIDER AUTOMOBILE. Circa 1904, the Doll et Cie company manufactured a variety of live steam cars as pictured in their catalog. This particular version is not pictured, but is very similar in nature to the single seater, #701 and the three seater #704. An outstanding toy with great presence and appeal, toy has had professional paint restoration, yet still a most appealing and desirable toy. Enameled in yellow with tangerine interior and two large nickel plated headlamps along with finely spoked metal wheels with rubber tires. The steam plant is at the rear of the vehicle and through a series of gears and a piston attached to the rear axle, the car would be propelled forward. Direction of vehicle accomplished by means of steering wheel and gearing to front axle. Of unknown model, but obviously a faithful representation of the real early 20th century vehicle. Included with this early automobile is a goggled chauffeur of more recent vintage. SIZE: 11-1/2″ l. CONDITION: As stated above and right rear fender needing to be reattached at rear quarter panel. 1-12321 (5,500-7,500)

Minor tear to cloth roof at edge of metal seam, but not offensive. 1-12322 (2,500-3,500)

FINE EARLY BING CLOCKWORK RUNABOUT. Manufactured by Bing, this hand painted vehicle according to catalog cuts is known as the De Dion Bouton roadster. Attractively painted in yellow with red highlighting and a large set of tufted metal seating for the driver and passenger. Along with the clockwork mechanism, the car features spoked metal rims with white rubber tires, adjustable steering and a large center position headlamp. Original Bing decal present on foot board below driver. SIZE: 9″ l. CONDITION: Overall paint on vehicle appears to be original. However, rubber tires and spoked rims appear to have had restoration work. Front headlamp is a replacement. 1-12498 (800-1,200)

G&K DELIVERY VAN. A highly stylized delivery van with an elaborate cover over the driver. Lithographed in dark brown with yellow, white and black detailing.

LEHMANN PADDY & PIG WITH OB. A very fine, all original example in vibrant paint and lithography, a classic toy produced by the famed Lehmann company depicting an Irishman riding his blanketed pig. So often during this time period, toys embodied the social and economic climate of the period, casting aspersions on certain nationalities or political figures. The box is present, however, end flaps of lid are missing, and slight paper loss of upper right hand corner of label. SIZE: 5-1/2″ l. CONDITION: Extremely vibrant coloring with only a few paint chips, most notably to white saddle area. Clothing has minor soiling and fading. Mechanism operational. 1-12293 (1,000-1,500)

Toy is slightly dusty from sitting out on a shelf. 2) Lehmann hansom cab. Overall in good condition with a fair amount of shelf dust and some darkening to litho. 3-4) Pair of tin fire engines; one a pumper the other a ladder wagon. Normally this toy comes with a fire garage to house these two vehicles.

GERMAN SHEPHERD SKITTLES. A very well detailed German Shepherd with an open back containing eight assorted animals pins and the ninth pin being a clown aka “the king pin”. Most likely of a later period from other well known German skittle sets. Although the detailing to the container itself is excellent, the overall finish is different and not as elaborate or refined. Definitely an original paint finish which is more flat in nature than other earlier sets which have a high gloss finish. Still an interesting piece and a nice addition to any collection. A unique feature of this particular set are all the animals are glass eyed. SIZE: 21″ l. CONDITION: Overall very good. Some of the animals show a fair amount of wear, most likely from use. 1-12472 (2,500-3,500)

IVES NINE-PIN SET. Fabulous early set of nine pins manufactured by Ives Blakeslee in the late 19th century. The wooden pins are covered in lithographed paper with great detailing especially to their faces. Legs and hats are painted in gold pinstriped. Set was patented in 1885 and basically features the same figure but either in red or blue attire. Set comes with what appears to be its original wooden ball with red, yellow and blue stripe. SIZE: 12″ t. CONDITION: Overall very good with some minor touch-up where there would be paper loss and a few small repairs to brim of hats where they more than likely fell over and chipped away. 1-12469 (1,000-1,500)

FRENCH TIN HUNTER PLATFORM TOY. A charming early 20th century hand painted toy depicting a hunter with his two hounds pursuing a leaping stag. When the toy is rolled across the floor, the front wheels by means of a wire make the stag leap up and down, and the rear wheels enable the pursuing hounds also jump up and down. SIZE: 6″ l. CONDITION: Overall very good, some minor solder repair at fixed attachment points of animals. 1-12522 (500-700)

HAND PAINTED GERMAN TIN AMERICAN INDIAN TOY. A fine early German windup toy depicting an American Indian with a tomahawk in one hand and a bow & arrow in the other.

When wound, figure wobbles side to side at his waist while his lead feet stabilize him as he dances across the table. SIZE: 7-1/2″ h. CONDITION: Overall very good all original condition, typical wear on legs at swivel point. 1-12460 (350-550)

SCHOENHUT DUTCH BOY & GIRL JOLLY JIGGERS. The Schoenhut firm created and manufactured many wonderful and unique toys from the late 1800s to their bankruptcy in the early 1930s. The jolly jiggers were produced as Dutch boy and girl or a black dude, but in either case, with a child playing, a headache for the adult was all but guaranteed. Noisy things, we’re sure the child was banished to the outside as the action involved a paddle hitting the feet of the dancers and as a result was a most realistic dance. The location of the dancers could be changed to a center position as well as the ability to have them dance individually by locking a piece of tin on the handle. The figure themselves, which are approximately 12″ h are dressed in Dutch garb and their papier mache heads were also used on Schoenhut’s line of Roly Poly’s. SIZE: Approximately 21″ l x 11″ w x 16″ h. CONDITION: Overall very fine all original condition with only some minor wear/chipping to faces of both figures. 1-12462 (750-1,500)

LARGE GROUPING OF SCHOENHUT CIRCUS FIGURES AND ANIMALS. Approximately 18 animals and figures and a bevy of accessories. Consisting of 3 earlier clowns, 3 glass eyed elephants, a hobo, a farmer, 3 donkeys, male acrobat, ringmaster, 3 reduced elephants, painted eye horse, monkey, and chairs, pedestals, etc. Overall fair to good with figures redressed, blankets added to elephants, etc. Some figures have been repainted or have paint enhancement as with the clown and ringmaster.

ONLY EXTANT 1888 ASA G. CANDLER & CO. ALBUMEN PHOTOGRAPH & ASA GRIGGS CANDLER FAMILY BOOK BEARING CANDLER SIGNATURES. In 1910 Coca-Cola Co. founder Asa Griggs Candler ordered all original corporate documents destroyed and burned. Mark Pendergrast stated this in his book For God, Country and Coca-Cola. Also according to Coca-Cola historian Pendergrast, in 1914, original Coca-Cola Co. shareholder Margaret Dozier threatened legal action over an alleged forgery of her signature on her share title transfer document for the original 1888 founded company. The authenticity of Dr. John Pemberton’s 1888 title transfer signature was also raised at this time by Dozier. Only one single original photograph of Coca-Cola inventor Dr. Pemberton appearing with Asa Griggs Candler exists today. Mount with upper right hand corner section broken off, with remains of the date “1888” in pencil evident. Lower section of mount has imprinted “Kuhns’ Photo.” and “Atlanta, GA.” Verso of mount has written in 20th century blue ink quill pen “Property of Charles James Come, North Chatham, N.Y.” Handwriting appears to be circa 1920’s-1940’s. Found in Atlanta, Georgia in the late 1990’s, the “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” albumen is accompanied by a copy of the Coca-Cola founder’s biography Asa Griggs Candler, written by son Charles Howard Candler (1878-1957), inscribed by the author to his son “Charles Howard Candler, Jr. ” in blue ink; signed “his Daddy – 9 – 1 – 1950.” To Coca-Cola founder Asa G. Candler, Charles Howard Candler was the eldest of three children. The book was published in 1950 by Georgia’s Emory University at Atlanta. This copy was handed down in the Asa Griggs Candler family and bears the signature reference of three generations of Candlers. It includes a tipped-in partial document bearing the actual autograph signature of Asa Griggs Candler (1851-1929), co-founder of Coca-Cola Company in 1888 and later founder in 1892 of The Coca-Cola Company. On page 68 of the privately printed book Asa Griggs Candler is reproduced this exact photograph. Further research has yielded that the photograph reproduced in the book is off a modern mid-20th century Kodak “Velox” black and white silver-bromide copy photo that in turn was taken from the original only extant “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” albumen. The consignor worked with reference archivists at the Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library at Emory, further documenting the “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” albumen and concluding this final aspect of the research process. Damage and emulsion loss that had occurred to the right hand edge emulsion section of the original “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” albumen when the card stock mount and photograph sustained damage and cracks to same during its existence, was detected in the modern mid-20th century Kodak “Velox” copy photographs on file in the Asa Griggs Candler and Candler family papers at Emory as well. This proved that all of the known modern mid-20th century Kodak “Velox” copy photographs were indisputably made from the original “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.’ albumen. Reference archivists at the Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library at Emory University believe this photograph to be the same one reproduced in Candler’s son’s 1950 historical tome. This most recent discovery by the photograph’s consignor – author and historian Richard Warren Lipack, completed the research on the “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” albumen. According to the library, this documentation has been placed in the internal reference files or ‘vertical files’ of the Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library at Emory containing the Asa Griggs Candler / Candler family papers. A complete print-out of this documentation is provided with this lot. Stated by Charles Howard Candler in his book, his father Asa managed to purchase the controlling shares to the original Coca-Cola Co. on April 14, 1888, the very same day it is believed the “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” albumen was taken. In the photograph, Dr. John S. Pemberton is seen standing in the doorway beside his name on the window, along with the name of an obscure elixir drink product Pemberton was selling then; called “Lemon Orange E.” This elixir may be suitable for trademark registration and distribution today without a license required from the Atlanta cola company Giant! The image is the only known actual original photograph showing Pemberton, as all others are either taken from news clippings or have been fabricated over the past century from other sources as artist renderings. The “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” albumen also represents the only known example of both Pemberton and Candler in the same image extant. The albumen shows the key element of essentially when the interests of Coca-Cola Co. became codified and taken over by Asa G. Candler. The original Candler pharmacy building located at 47 Peachtree St., Atlanta – where the Coca-Cola syrup was first manufactured in bulk, is prominently pictured in the photo. The albumen shows Candler standing just a few feet away in front of the words “Asa G. Candler & Co.” on the main storefront window, with Candler holding a piece of paper in one hand. This paper is likely the actual transfer contract and the infamous Coca-Cola ‘secret recipe.’ The original Coca-Cola “French Wine Coca” drink name is also found on the window next to where Pemberton is seen standing. Significantly, Pemberton, a morphine addict from a Civil War injury, died from cancer in August 1888, approximately four months after this “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” photo was taken. This photograph is believed to have been originally the property of Asa G. Candler and once hung framed in one of his Atlanta homes. Candler’s second son, Asa G. Candler, Jr. (1880–1953), was a depressed eccentric alcoholic. By the 1930’s he squandered much of his family inheritance. To support his drink addiction, Asa G. Candler was rumored to have sold things out of the Candler estate, which may have included the “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” photograph. A recent promotional documentary on the history of Coca-Cola found on the company website shows a low resolution artist rendering of this very photograph. However it had been digitally doctored with open windows now shown shut, some people erased, while others were dropped in, etc.; seemingly an effort to disguise the image from one of the modern not commercially usable 20th century institutional copy photos available, taken from this original “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” albumen offered here. This is currently shown in the soda company’s 2011 documentary movie entitled: “Animated History of Coca-Cola,” currently on both the company website and internet. Prior to this, no such use of this albumen was ever employed by the Atlanta soft drink company or even attempted. Modern copies of this photo exist and are available for purchase and restrictions against any commercial use of this image are implied by contract through Georgia State University or Emory. Both offer modern copies of the “1888 Asa G. Candler & Co.” image expressly for educational non-commercial use. However, with ownership of this original photo, being privately owned, and not held by an institution, the photograph embodies full use of its inherent ‘high resolution’ reproduction rights in a full and unobstructed commercial and commercially viable manner – which The Coca-Cola Company can not even do. The 1888 photograph is the earliest known piece of bona fide Coca-Cola memorabilia. Further details are provided in a fifteen minute video documentary, which can be viewed on our website via the appropriate link provided. SIZE: Photograph measures 9-1/4″ h x 7-1/2″ w on 10″ x 12″ mount. CONDITION: Mount has modern archival tissue repair and old paper repairs to back of mount to reinforce cracked and broken sections resulting from damage occurring in prior years. But the photo itself is complete and without damage or repair, save for minor chip and paper loss to the emulsion in lower right side as prior mentioned. 1-12216 (50,000-75,000)

REGINA STYLE 35 DISC MUSIC BOX WITH LEADED GLASS FRONT AND CLOCK. An exceptional, all original Regina auto changer with all the bells and whistles! The fanciful crest retains the original Regina clock, which is in original condition. The more expensive models featured a clock in the crest and a leaded glass front door like this one has. Beautiful original finish to the mahogany cabinet with no apologies whatsoever. Opening the front door and viewing the mechanism, it is very clean and fully functional, but a light lubrication would be helpful. The changing mechanism has room for twelve metal discs. A large celluloid plaque is visible upon opening the door reading “Regina Music Box Co.” A plaque on the bed plate states the serial number of 3500148. On the back wall of the cabinet is a decal with the word “Regina” written over musical notes. Perhaps this is one of the nicest all original changers to exist. If one were to make an apology, there are a couple small cracks to one of the rippled clear panels directly above the crown on the front door, though not overly noticeable, we feel this minor sorrow should be mentioned. Included with this machine is a notarized stamp indicating that this particular machine was shipped from the factory on November 20, 1907 to the ultimate purchaser in Iowa. Miscellaneous literature along with original crank, clock key, and cabinet keys included with 12 15-1/2″ discs. SIZE: Approx. 70″ h x 22″ d x 27″ w.

CONDITION: Restored and refinished with some replaced parts including the glass. Interior has been affixed with interior light to see action better. Music and changer mechanism is operational with no broken teeth but seems somewhat quiet and may need some slight adjustments. 1-12431 (17,500-22,500)

25 CENT BALLY RELIANCE PAYOUT DICE MACHINE. An ingenious coin-op machine similar in nature to the Buckley Bones. These gambling devices let the player actually think he was playing the game of craps. Upon depositing a coin and pulling the handle, a pair of dice would appear in the left window. This became his “point” number. If he threw a 7 or 11 he was instantly a winner and paid the proper amount. Throwing a 2 or 12 is an automatic loser and the game is over. Any other number, he would depress the handle again until he made his point number, or threw a 7. A most complicated mechanism, yet simple once one understands the mechanics. This machine is in very good, all-original, untouched condition. In need of some light lubrication for machine to function properly, but not a big deal. Machine retains original back door with instruction sheet, as well as cash box. A very desirable gambling device and is highly sought after by collectors of coin operated gambling machines. SIZE: 15-1/2″ w x 11-1/2″ d x 17″ h. CONDITION: As described above, right reel most notably in need of some minor lubrication for it to spin properly. Otherwise, machine is complete and fully functional, including payouts. 1-12267 (8,000-12,000)

5 CENT MILLS FLOOR MODEL EXTRAORDINARY SLOT MACHINE. A classic 1930s slot machine with an art deco look about it.

Mechanics are in functional working order and a full working jackpot. Machine retains its original back door and coin box, however, the reel strips are appropriate replacements. SIZE: 60″ h. CONDITION: Overall very fine restored condition. Missing lower back wood panel on cabinet. 1-12424 (1,200-1,500)

Revised: 11/29/2012

Additional Information: there are small chips to jackpot center post.

5 CENT PACE “FANCY FRONT” COMET SLOT MACHINE. Pace produced several versions of the Comet. This particular example is from the 1930s and has elaborate fanciful aluminum front castings, which are often highlighted by bright colors. A goose neck style mechanism, Pace created a rotary disc similar to a Watling Rol-a-Top, which allowed the player and operator to view the last several coins played. Twin jackpots, so that if one was hit, the prospective gambler could still play in hopes of hitting the alternate jackpot. Pace quite possibly invented the concept of alternating jackpots to entice further play as no one would have interest in playing a machine with an empty jackpot window. An ingenious feature. Overall a nice older restoration with what appears to be all original parts including slide behind goose neck, reel strips, back door, etc. SIZE: 16″ w x 15″ d x 24″ h. CONDITION: Overall very good functional working order in need of minor lubrication and fine tuning. Original Pace lock with keys is included (in cash box needs to be reattached to back door with two carriage bolts. 1-12271 (750-1,000)

ONE CENT O.D. JENNINGS “LITTLE DUKE” SLOT MACHINE WITH SIDE VENDOR. An unusual 3-reel slot machine in that the three reels are concentric discs with the first reel being the middle disc. A most unique and interesting device and well liked among collectors, not only for this reason, but the attached gumball vendor on the right side of the machine. This particular Little Duke features the large single jackpot and the smaller coin head, signifying that it was earlier in the production run. A visually attractive Art Deco aluminum front casting with matching side vendor enhanced with various vibrant paint colors. The machine is encased in a quarter sawn oak cabinet. Machine has great action and is mechanically sound. Side vendor is also functional working condition. Retains original trapezoidal cash box. SIZE: 22″ h x 11″ d x 17″ w. CONDITION: Overall very fine restored condition. 1-12382 (1,750-2,250)

MILLS 5 CENT BLACK CHERRY SLOT MACHINE. This particular model was produced originally in the late 1930s and manufactured for a number of years. A true workhorse and very reliable machine that generated great profits for the various operators. Although one usually thinks of casinos, these particular machines were prolific in such places as the Elks Clubs, Moose Lodge, fire companies, and even churches looking to generate some extra income. Mechanically sound, and in overall very good working order (jackpot is intact but needs lubrication). Original finish to aluminum castings, wooden cabinet appears to have had a second coat of black paint applied. SIZE: 16″ l x 16″ d x 23″h. CONDITION: Overall very sound, however, machine is lacking original metal back door and now has a wooden hinged door. 1-12270 (400-600)

WATLING 5 CENT “COLOR WHEEL” BROWNIE. A classic gambling machine and perhaps one of the last of the color wheel series produced by any company. The concept being placing a bet on the various colors with corresponding various payouts, depending on the number of color slots on the tin lithographed wheel. Payouts range from 2:1 to 20:1 to the jackpot. This gambling device from the first quarter of the 20th century is encased in an oak cabinet with nickel plated iron trims. Always a winner if all coin slots are played. This type of machine eventually became obsolete, and the more successful for the operator were replaced with the classic three reeled one arm bandits. A very nice restored example and a fine addition to one’s coin-op collection and/or game room. SIZE: 15″ w x 26″ h x 10″ d. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus. Paneled wooden back door as well as wooden base appear to be quality replacements. 1-12430 (3,750-4,750)

O.D. JENNINGS “FAVORITE” COIN DROP TRADE STIMULATOR. Jennings produced a series of four trade stimulators, all similar in nature, the Comet, the Favorite, the Rainbow, and the Rockaway. All four of these were produced at the same time. However, they had different themes they portrayed. This particular example has a horse race theme depicted on the aluminum castings. Depending upon where your penny landed, you received anywhere from 0 to 25 points. But regardless of where the penny landed, you received a gumball for your troubles. Machine appears to be in original finish to the wood and the aluminum castings with some minor paint enhancement to lower front panel. Machine appears to be in mechanical working order. SIZE: 12-1/2″ d x 14″ w x 20″ h. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus. Replacement aluminum cap at gum fill opening. Original tin coin box is no longer present. 1-12381 (2,000-2,500)

O.D. JENNINGS ROCKAWAY “JACKS” TRADE STIMULATOR. One of the more elaborate penny payout Jacks machines. When a coin is deposited and the plunger pushed, the penny drops into a pinned spinning see-saw dial, then cascades down through a series of pins, hopefully landing in one of the payout pockets. If luck would have it, and the penny drops into one of the pockets, you would be entitled to all the coins in the corresponding window below that pocket. Just like potato chips, one could not play just a single penny. Although the odds were in the favor of the house, the player would easily be tempted by the chance of hitting it big and play again. The Jacks machines in general were low maintenance and highly profitable for the operator. This particular machine also would have vended gumballs with each play (lacking gum mechanism). A visually attractive machine with a polished and painted front castings and an oak cabinet. SIZE: 15″ w x 12″ d x 22″ h. CONDITION: Overall very good plus restored condition. Back door is a quality wood replacement with replica instruction sheet on interior panel. 1-12379 (1,500-2,000)

25 CENT MILLS POINSETTIA SLOT MACHINE. A classic Mills slot machine from the 1920s featuring poinsettia flowers emblazoned on the aluminum casting along with a jackpot. Pinstriped wooden sides and wooden base, machine is in original finish except back door, coin box, and metal slide behind goose neck, which are quality replacements. Machine retains its original tin reel strips and only used on this particular machine is the lemon “free play” bonus. If one were to hit the lemon free play on the first reel, the player could pull the handle again without having to deposit another quarter. An enticing gimmick that made the player feel he wasn’t a loser. Included with this lot is a nickel plated fanciful stand of more recent vintage (approximately 30″ h) that the machine sits upon. SIZE: 24″ h. CONDITION: Overall nice clean original condition. Tin reel strips somewhat darkened. Aged black paint to wooden base. 1-12249 (1,000-1,500)

MUTOSCOPE SKYSCRAPER TRAVELING CRANE DIGGER MACHINE. The classic art deco digger from the 1920s that would be featured in amusement parks or other settings of the time. A fancy large front aluminum plaque with manufacturer’s name with another plaque indicating that this machine was sold by Mills Sales Co. of Oakland, California. In the observation window where the crane is located, on the right and left side are two compartments filled with goodies that would flow down into the active area. The front facades of these compartments picture the Empire State Building. The machine is in as-found untouched condition perhaps last painted over 50 years ago. Mechanics untested but appears to be complete. SIZE: 42″ h x 23″ w x 20″ d. CONDITION: As described above, original coin entry was most likely functional on one cent and has been updated with a newer coin entry operated on a nickel. This replacement coin entry does not fit perfectly over the original void. 1-12268 (800-1,200)

ELECTRICITY IS LIFE SHOCK MACHINE. A metal tag within the case indicates that this machine was manufactured at the turn of the century by Detroit Medical Battery Co. At this point in time, so many cures were being offered for so many ailments and the belief that electric shock could resolve issues such as nervous stomach, mental disorders, blood ailments, etc. A penny deposited in the machine and firmly grasping both brass knobs, one would slowly rotate the right hand knob upwards. A dial indicated the strength of the shock one would receive. Oftentimes, little cure was ever administered, but more discomfort was the reality of the situation. Machine is constructed of cast iron with a horseshoe dial indicating strength and lightning bolts embossed on the front. Later on, it would become a challenge for children and adults to see how high they could register on the “Shock-o-meter”. These shock machines of the time period were ineffective and would possibly be compared to quack medicine. Machine appears to be in original condition, which is fair to good. SIZE: 18″ h x 11″ w x 11″ d. CONDITION: Repaired hairline crack to marquee and aged repair to right handle. Porcelain instruction panel a possible replacement. 1-12264 (4,000-4,500)

EXHIBIT SUPPLY COIN-OPERATED CARD VENDOR. Most likely from the 1920s-30s, this card vendor has two coin slots that would normally vend a postcard size fortune. Most likely, one for women and one for men. Displayed on the front panel are eight early T-206 baseball cards from 1909-1911 era including major Hall of Famers Chris Mattheson, Zach Wheat, Chief Bender, Eddie Collins, Walter Johnson, and others. A nickel plated disc on the front panel with “Exhibit Supply Co.” along with a wooden marquee with original insert (frame that holds it is of more recent vintage) gives directions on how to operate the machine. Directly under coin slots is the original coin box. Machine is encased in an oak cabinet, which has been refinished sometime ago. Mechanism appears to be intact and functional. Included is an additional vintage marquee panel with photos of women in risque poses. SIZE: 21″ h x 18″ w. CONDITION: Overall good to very good. Minor chips to wood here and there. 1-12265 (3,000-4,000)

SANTA CLAUS GAME OF CHANCE BALL TOSS CARNIVAL GAME. An interesting and unique carnival game, perhaps of English manufacture, a large cast aluminum bust depicting Father Christmas would have sat on a table. The child would drop four balls into Santa’s mouth and by maneuvering a front lever, the balls would be dropped through his chest, come to a final resting place in any one of several numbered columns. The total of the four balls would be added up and as indicated on the wooden play field, winning numbers would be paid out with the corresponding prizes. Other games similar in nature to this such as a frog, but none have the desirability and appeal as this piece. Of unknown manufacture and circa, but most likely from the 1930s or after. Overall finish on Santa as well as on play field appears to be original and unaltered. This unusual piece could benefit greatly by a good cleaning. SIZE: 23″ d x 24″ h x 17″ w. CONDITION: Overall very good plus. 1-12262 (3,500-6,500)

MILLS 3-REEL PURITAN TRADE STIMULATOR. Unusual in the fact that this style of this machine is usually only found in cast iron. It must have been at this point in time for economic reasons they were switching to aluminum and pot metal castings. The later versions normally found have a completely different coin entry system and do not have the mirror attachment on the top of the front casting. These machines were relatively inexpensive, but garnered great returns for the operator. Referring to the award card on the lower front casting a certain series of numbers were winners and awards paid out accordingly. The mirror above allowed the operator behind the counter to see the winning numbers and a cash drop door behind the machine allowed the operator to drop exposed coins into cash box, thus not allowing a player to claim winning dishonestly. Castings are quite elaborate and this is a visually attractive machine. Machine is in functional condition and all castings appear to be original. Reel strips are intact and original. Award card of more recent vintage. SIZE: 11″ h x 7-1/2″ w x 9″ d. CONDITION: As described above. Nice older restoration to machine. 1-12380 (4,500-5,500)

25 CENT MILLS WAR EAGLE. A classic 1930s Mills slot machine. Oftentimes, the various machine manufacturers changed the exterior appearance in the hopes of appealing to potential players. In the 1930s, Mills created the Silent Series, consisting of the War Eagle, the Castle Front, the Roman Front, and the Bursting Cherry. All of these machines featured elaborate front castings of various design with vibrant colors added to attract potential players. This particular machine is a replica of the original model with newer cabinet, but an older original mechanism. Mechanics are fine and machine appears to be in excellent working order. SIZE: 16″ w x 15″ d x 26″ h. CONDITION: As described above. 1-12383 (1,500-2,000)

TWO GAMBLING ITEMS. Includes nickel plated Chuck-A-Luck. Rotating hourglass shaped cage with three wooden dice. Also includes hand held tin and glass spring loaded roulette game. SIZE: 11″ h and 4-3/4″ dia respectively. CONDITION: Very good to excellent. 1-12269 (100-200)

STANDARD JOHNSON COIN COUNTER/SORTER. A most elaborate coin counting/sorting machine circa late 1920s. Included with this machine are copies of the patent papers filed in 1925. Looking at this machine, one cannot imagine how complicated this piece is. There is a large hopper at the top where the coins are deposited flowing down a chute and onto a round turntable, where they are sorted into the appropriate tubes for each coin. There are many adjustments and chutes and obviously this machine was very accurate and functional, and the mechanics somewhat overwhelming. Machine comes indirectly from the original owner who in the 1920s-40s had a vending/amusement route in the Washington, DC area. Machine appears to be intact and complete. Metal plaques on machine indicate model number NNC5 and number 1485. Another circular tag with the eagle and American shield proclaim “Counting the Worlds Coin”. SIZE: 53″ h. CONDITION: Overall appears to be untouched original finish. Slightly dusty from storage. Mechanics untested but appear to be functional. Aluminum tray on lower front of machine, where bags would sit awaiting filling, exhibits some damage at mounting screw holes to frame of machine. 1-12313 (300-500)

COUNTERTOP FIVE STAR FINAL PINBALL MACHINE. Circa 1930s. The precursor to the modern day pinball machine, which in itself is now becoming an obsolete amusement. Depositing a nickel in the coin slot and pushing the plunger, the player would receive five balls. Carefully, and depending upon the tension of the plunger, he would launch each ball through a series of pins, and hopefully land in the high scoring holes. Depending on the location, one could be sure cash awards were paid out for high scores. This particular machine is encased in a wooden cabinet with a bevy of decals on the facade indicating point value or decoration. As time went on, pinball machines became more elaborate and electric in nature. This is a very nice all-original example of an early pinball machine. SIZE: 17″ w x 31″ l. CONDITION: Overall very fine plus. 1-12272 (400-600)

GOTTLIEB FRONTIERSMAN PINBALL MACHINE. Great vintage wood case 5 cent pinball machine with action packed graphics on the front glass and play field featuring a Davy Crockett type character in a coonskin cap and his buxom companion fighting off the natives in the wilds of early America while youngsters fight off the onslaught of wild bears. Humorous and colorful and surely a delight to play. SIZE: 54″ l x 66″ h x 25″ w. CONDITION: Shows years of faithful service. Back glass is very good to near excellent. One leg with vertical stress split. Original 5 cent coin mechanism is present, but set for free play. Lacking key, but presently unlocked. Machine works but will need some attention and adjustments to be fully functional. A few replaced bumpers with some celluloid bumper tops showing much distress. 1-12248 (300-600)

OUTSTANDING SCALE MODEL OF THE AUTOCAR MILITARY TRANSPORT VEHICLE. Built by the Autocar Company in 1915 in Ardmore, PA, as one of two sales samples for a commercial vehicle show in New York City. This extraordinary quarter-scale, closed cab dump truck model retains its original olive drab paint surface and factory lettering. Handmade by Autocar master craftsmen to exact blueprint specifications, the truck was constructed of steel, brass, aluminum, iron, hardwood, leather, rubber, and canvas and is a precise replica of the company’s standard two-ton truck that became known as “the Mule” in WWI in Europe. Every detail from the full-size model is present in this sample, including carbide-type headlamps, leather driver’s seat cushions, functional, cab-mounted klaxon horn, miniature grease fittings, fully finned radiator core, twelve-lug artillery spoke wheels and hard tires, functional gear shifts and brake levers, full leaf suspension, an electric motor-driven shaft to lift the two-section dump bed, roll-down side and front curtains for winterizing the cab, and many other astonishing details. The model weighs approximately two hundred pounds and measures just over four feet in length. Clutch, brake, and accelerator pedals are mounted on the diamond-plate cab floor. A treated canvas fabric covers the “C” cab frame, which is assembled from tongue-in-groove hardwood slats over the operator’s compartment. Bronze tow hooks are mounted on the chassis corners. An engine crank is in place at the base of the radiator shell. Cast mounting steps are found on both sides of the cab. Side-louvered hoods lift to reveal the engine compartment and its four cylinder gasoline engine (unknown working condition.) Spark plug wires, magneto, water pump, and other details are to be found in place, as well as cast Autocar logos on both sides of the engine head. A drive shaft connects the transmission to the heavy duty rear axle. The second model is in the collection of an historic vehicle museum and is the open-cab version of the same truck. That example, however, was repainted many years ago and is incomplete. Our example is entirely original and complete. It was, for more than ninety years, in the family of one of the Autocar employees who built both examples. Bought from the family in 2011, the Autocar is arguably one of the finest sales samples ever produced by early American industry. SIZE: 51″ l x 21″ w x 25″ h. CONDITION: As stated above in very good original condition with uniform wear and paint chips. 1-12333 (45,000-65,000)

SALESMAN SAMPLE OLIVER PLOW. One of the most recognized names in farm machinery, this classic walk-behind plow consists of a long wooden body with large brass plow, stabilizing wheel and hitch. Hand painted in red and black with “Oliver’s Patent” across the top and on both handles and “Oliver’s Combination Plow” on either side. While Julia’s has sold salesman sample Oliver plows before, what sets this example apart is the fact that it has descended through the very Oliver family that invented it.
