An original very scarce antique 7 3/4\" tall lithographed tin animated toy depicting a black man whose facial expression and arms and legs move into a different position when the top hat on his head is depressed. The toy is marked by the maker (ballerina with C A letters) by I am uncertain which company this represents but the beautiful lithography appears to be German. The toy dates to the very early 20th century and it is in quite nice all original condition with only some minor wear from normal use. A very scarce item for the collector of antique tin toys or for the collector of Black Americana. Toy is completely fresh to the market from the estate of an old time collector.TERMS & CONDITIONS:
