Another Fine Toy from ebay
store stripe4107
I recently wrote a post about stripe4107, a fine store on ebay.
While I revisited the store, I saw a nice Kingsbury toy, that I had
never seen before.
The Kingsbury Manufacturing Company was a toy company located
in Keene, New Hampshire,USA. In stayed in business from the late 19th
century to the mid 20th century.*
Used from a description on the search engine Google*
The toy below is made of pressed steel, and was an early model from the newly-founded toy company. The model is Model 796, and moves by a wind-up motor
"little Jim Crawler Tractor" on tracks. When the toy was fully wound-up,
there was an Off/On switch that would keep the wound-up spring
from releasing its' power, until the children were ready to play with the toy.
Dimensions:
L x W x H
8" x 4" x 6"
15.25 cm x 9.75 cm x 15.25 cm
