JAZZBO JIM STORE DISPLAY.

JAZZBO JIM STORE DISPLAY. The electric demonstrator was used in stores to promote and sell the Jazzbo Jim toy of which thousands upon thousands were sold. The toy is very common but the store display is extremely rare. Unlike the Strauss windup toy, the store display has a large electric motor and the dancer could dance for hours on end. Probably between 9 to 5 when the stores were open. The roof and box the dancer stands on is lithographed. Roof lithographed in brick and sides with scenes of black people at play. The figure is dressed in silk with a composition face and hands holding a wood and tin banjo. SIZE: 32″ h x 14-1/2″ w x 10″ d. CONDITION: Top of roof faded lacking almost all litho. Sides of box with some light rusting all around. Jim’s clothes probably old replacements and face has some touch-up. Otherwise good condition. 1-5317 MC (1,500-3,000)
