TN Japan c1950s-60s, battery-operated tin toy. BARTENDER, 30cm tall. Tinplate bar & base slightly faded. Bartender has vinyl head & hands. Missing his cocktail shaker & glass. Battery compartment is clean, not working. Dusty, needs a good clean to be otherwise good.

Variation on the classic Charlie Weaver Bartender Toy. This barkeep used to mix & pour drinks with swaying motion & smoke coming from his ears! Now retired but could prop up a bar near you …or maybe could be coaxed back to work
