This is a very cool old toy. Circa 1930. We do not know who made it but we believe it to be made of pressed steel. Original metal wheels and original decals. Zepplin is about 25 inches long and weighs about 5 pounds. The man we bought this from did add some string on the front to make it a pull to when he was a kid and played with this toy. We'll leave it's removal up to your good judgment.Shipping will be tricky on this one. An over-sized box will probably be required, especially if sent to postal zones 7 or 8. AS you may know, the Post Office will often charge $30+ just for an oversized box shipped to West Coast. We're shipping from Zip 48239. Figure package weight about 7 pounds, hopefully a bit less. We'll quote EXACT shipping costs once we know w winning bidder resides and we've had a chance to get accurate shipping quote from Post Office. Please note that we'll ship either Priority or Parcel Post, based on what winning bidder prefers. We ship USPS only.Condition of toy is decent for age. Paint chips, scrapes and paint loss present in all areas. Some minor rust on surface in a few areas. Some minor loss to decals but they're t Looks like metal collar around front wheel is bent in a bit. Dorsal fin looks slightly tilted but not bad. Wheels seem nice and stable. Most paint of wheel rims but flat areas are OK.The truth is that we're nit-picking a bit. The toy's structural integrity is all t We don't see any dents or major problems.
