A Visit to
VintageToysSB
I've written before about VintageToySB before (March 2024). It's a fine store, and has nice toys to sell. Earlier in the week,I decided to "drop by" and have a look at
what VintageToysSB had to sell.I looked around the store, and found a nice airplane from a company that I had written before - Ferdinand Strauss.
The toy is an airplane and here's the description:
"1920's antique pre-war Ferdinand Strauss aluminum
wind-up toy airplane Silver Eagle boxed aeroplane
flying hanging string display monoplane"
When you go to the store on Etsy, there is a short video that shows
the airplane moving around is circles . It is tied by a cord that is anchored
by a hook in the ceiling. You have to go there to see how this airplane flies
around and around. It's amazing to know that a child would play
with such a toy for a long time!
Below:
What's amazing is to find the original box
from a toy that is so old!
Length: 11" / 27.95 cm
So that's it for today. I hope that you enjoyed this post
and visit the link of VintageToysSB on Etsy. It's fantastic
to see this toy go round and around after is has been wound up
by a key, and is hanging from the ceiling, even after all those years gone by.
Thanks for visiting my blog today, and as always, have a great part
of the day or night wherever you may be. Also, I'd to wish
everyone a Healthy and Happy New Year.
