Description
Vintage Tinplate Battery Operated Gear Robot Wt Speed Control, Horikowa (S.H.), Japan, AF
 
A vintage used tinplate battery operated Gear Robot with
Automatic Speed Control, with silver tinplate body and head,
plastic chest cover over gears and lights, and red feet,
made by the Horikowa (S.H.) Co. of Japan in the
 late 1950\'s or early 1960\'s.
 
When switched on, the Robot walks forward while
the lights in the chest flash red, yellow and green, and
 the coloured gears revolve. The On-Off switch is on
top of the Robot\'s head, and moving the control also
changes the speed of operation from slow to fast.
 
The robot is in good working condition with general
playwear and one or two issues - there is some rust
on the battery box cover and one or two small holes
where it has rusted through – the battery box itself is
mostly clean. There are also one or 2 other small areas
of surface rust (under one foot). The ends of the 2 rods
on the shoulders are missing as are 2 of the coloured
gears inside the chest (gears still revolve ok), and
there is a small crack on the plastic chestplate.
 
  It measures 11 inches tall by 5.5 inches across
and 3.25 inches deep, and is marked with “Made
 in Japan” on the lid of the battery box.
 
A nice vintage battery toy that does not come up
very often, especially in good working condition,
and a great addition to a robot or space collection.
