BOY SAWING WOOD ARTICULATED PULL TOY.

BOY SAWING WOOD ARTICULATED PULL TOY. A unique American tin toy and to the best of our knowledge this is the only known surviving example. In untouched, as found, all original condition, I’m sure that as a young man playing with this toy one would be quite amused, especially if your father was a lumberjack or carpenter. The blue-japanned boy is mounted on a dark green oval treadle on a bright red tin base. As the toy is pulled, an eccentric axle activates the boy so that he saws the wooden log-a never-ending task. This toy appears in Barenholtz’s book American Antique Toys on page 275 (negative is reversed). SIZE: 6-1/2″ l. PROVENANCE: From the Collection of Malcolm Deisenroth, Jr. CONDITION: Overall good to very good. 1-10117 (2,000-4,000)
