Description
All three genuine VINTAGE 1970's era Tinplate Lithographed "Made in Japan" kid's "clickers" are included for a single bid amount
These are "new OLD stock" (NOS) items that were left unsold after a toy store closed down 30- 40 years back
There are minor scratches to the paintwork as you might expect on an old vintage item of this age
OTHERWISE the condition can only be described as truly EXCEPTIONAL and these will make a brilliant display item in your vintage toy collection, "Made in Japan" collection or WILD WEST collection
The clickers depict an old western style COWBOY an old wild western style INDIAN Brave & a COWGIRL "Calamity Jane" ?? or Annie Oakley ??
US Paratroopers dropped behind enemy lines during the D-Day invasion equipped with very similar "crickets" (Sound generating clickers) which they used to great effect differentiating "friendlies" in the dark who would reciprocate a "click" if one were heard from an unseen potential ambush. Germans NOT equipped to return a "click" ? suffered a gruesome fate
THESE were manufactured well post WW2 by an emerging Japanese economic power
SIZE = these are about 3" or 75 mm tall and "CLICK" like new
NO BATTERIES REQUIRED and any parents whose KIDS you might give these too ?? will HATE YOU for 1000 years :-)
