THIS TIN BATTERY OPERATED TOY WAS MADE IN JAPAN AROUND THE 1960\'S. THIS TAKES 1 D-SIZE BATTERY AND ALL FUNCTIONS WORK, THE BALL LOADS IN PLACE AND THE BATTER SWINGS AND HITS THE BALLS, THIS HITS BALLS WELL. THIS COMES WITH 5 BALLS THAT APPEAR ORIGINAL. THE BASE MEASURES 6\" X 4 1/2\" AND THIS IS 7 1/2\" HIGH TO THE TOP OF THE BATTER. THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT IS CLEAN INSIDE, THE BATTERY DOOR HAS BEEN REPLACED AND MOST OF THE TIN TABS UNDERNEATH THE BASE ARE MISSING, BUT THE BASE STILL STAYS IN PLACE.
