Up for auction we have a rare battery operated vintage toy made in Japan. This vintage toy takes 2 D batteries and is 12 inches tall. I do not know the exact year this was made and my antiques dealer estimated it was from about the 50's. You don't see to many of them come through auction. This guy is sitting on a dust bin next to a steet light in his suit and tophat. When turned on he is supposed to move his arms so he can drink then smoke his cigar and his head should also move and Smoke should come out of his mouth. He also moves his crossed leg. I have had him for about 6 years and he is really dirty. I put batteries in him and he did nothing but light up the street lamp and his face. He is a great piece for any collector was stored without batteries so no corrosion. And also maybe an antique toy repair man could get him working again I am sure. I plan on shipping him with extreme care.Please check out my other auctions.
