Rare Japanese Version 1950's Jolly Chimp made by Bandai in excellent working condition with the original box and green instruction tag! This is the first version of this toy as it has the black on/off lever instead of the on/off switch and also has the metal clasp on the battery door. This Japanese version has different graphics and the green instruction tag is also in Japanese. It also is the same as exact toy as the Daishin C-K Jolly Chimp but Bandai was the company that distributed it in Japan. This chimp is in really nice condition as seen in the pictures! The Chimp bangs the cymbals while the head goes back and forth, press the button on the head and look out here comes the good stuff!! He then screeches while showing his teeth and his eyes pop out!! All functions working well. All fabric on monkey is in great condition with very minimal wear and no fading. There is slight wear on both knees which is a common problem with the Jolly Chimp. The Colors are very clean and vivid. The yellow vest is in good condition. Cymbals look nice with no wear or tarnishing. Battery compartment is spotless and free of corrosion. The box is in good condition and comes with all of the original packaging inserts. The original green tag is not a reproduction tag and still has part of the original rubber band attached to the arm of the chimp. I have loosely attached the tag with some string from the era for display purposes which will allow you to remove the tag if you want to operate the toy without any damage to the tag. This is an excellent example of the really hard to find Japanese Jolly Chimp and I know someone will enjoy it! These are hard to come by as I have only seen a few in my years of collecting toys. I am a collector and well as a seller of vintage toys. I started my hobby with the Jolly Chimp and have many in my collection. You can buy with confidence when you purchase from me as I guess you could say I specialize in the Jolly Chimp. It was the first toy I had when I was a baby boy and still have that same one today in OK working condition. It was played with very extensively! I have that one as well as several other Jolly Chimps in almost new condition. I do collect and sell other toys but this is by far my favorite way before the Toy Story 3 movie. I will offer support for your Jolly Chimp for as long as you own the toy and if it does stop working for any reason I will be more than happy to make any repairs it may need for as long as you own your chimp for a small fee to cover my time and parts. I use the "Buy It now" option so you do not have to wait or loose an auction. Please check out my "Buy it now" toys as they are all great vintage working toys!!
