Description
HIGH GRADE BOXED HAND CAR SET AND MUCH MORE:
DISNEY 1934 "LIONEL MICKEY MOUSE HAND CAR" WIND-UP TOY WITH ORIGINAL:
WIND-UP KEY, 2 PIECE BOX, AND 8 SECTION 2 RAIL
TRACK.
ADDITIONAL TRACK OPTIONS ARE ALWAYS AVAILABLE ON ARE ARE RELATIVELY INEXPENSIVE-THE 2 RAIL VERSION IS SCARCER AND COMES WITH A HIGHER PRICE TAG THAN THE 3 RAIL OPTION).
THESE ORIGINAL HAND CAR SETS CAME WITH THE 2 RAIL TRACK VERSION. VINTAGE "O SCALE" 3 RAIL TRACK WILL ALSO WORK WITH THIS HAND CAR.
THE APPROXIMATE OVERALL DIMENSIONS OF THE HAND CAR INCLUDING MICKEY AND MINNIE ARE 2" X 8 1/2" X 6" TALL.
THIS TOY HAS ONE OF THE MORE INTERESTING MECHANICAL ACTIONS THAN OTHER SIMILAR TOYS OF THAT ERA. WHEN THE WIND-UP HAND CAR CIRCLES THE TRACK, MICKEY AND MINNIE MOUSE FIGURES PUMP UP AND DOWN THE CENTER HAND BAR FURIOUSLY.
IT IS QUITE ENTERTAINING JUST WATCHING THIS TOY WORK, FOR THE FIGURES DO, INDEED, SEEM TO BE PROPELLING THEMSELVES MADLY AROUND THE TRACK!
I HAVE ATTACHED A VIDEO OF THE TOY IN RUNNING MODE FOR YOUR REVIEW.
MICKEY AND MINNIE MOUSE ARE MADE UP OF HAND-PAINTED COMPOSITION MATERIAL EXCEPT FOR THEIR RUBBER LEGS, RUBBER-COATED WIRE TAILS, AND MINNIE'S WOOD HAT.
THE MICKEY AND MINNIE FIGURINES STAND APPROXIMATELY 4 1/2" TALL AND ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH MINIMAL COSMETIC AND/OR CONSTRUCTION DISTRACTIONS.
MINNIE MOUSE STILL HAS HER ORIGINAL SILK-LIKE FLORAL ARRANGEMENT ATTACHED TO THE HOLE PROVIDED IN THE BACKSIDE OF HER HEAD JUST BELOW THE HAT.
IT IS EXTREMELY RARE FOR THE FLORAL ARRANGEMENT TO STILL BE ATTACHED AND JUST MY FIRST TIME EVER HAVING THE SAME COME THROUGH MY COLLECTION.
OVER THE 21 + YEARS THAT I HAVE BEEN SELLING THESE HAND CARS ON I HAVE PROBABLY SOLD AT LEAST 100 OF THESE HAND CARS. I HAVE NEVER EVEN SEEN A HAND CAR WITH THE FLORAL ARRANGEMENT IN PLACE ANYWHERE THAT I CAN RECALL.
THE OVERALL QUALITY OF THE HAND CAR SET IS EXCELLENT WITH MINIMAL COSMETIC AND/OR CONSTRUCTION DISTRACTIONS.
THE ORANGE LITHOGRAPHED TIN AUTHENTICITY BADGE/PLACARD ON ONE SIDE OF THE HAND CAR IS IN OVERALL VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH MINOR COSMETIC AND/OR CONSTRUCTION DISTRACTIONS(MOSTLY SOME LIGHT CRAZING TO THE BACKGROUND SUBSTRATE WHICH IS QUITE COMMON AND CAUSED BY NATURAL AGING).
THE IMPRINT ON THE SAME CAN STILL BE READ EASILY AND CONSISTS OF:
MICKEY MOUSE
(C) WALT DISNEY
HAND CAR
NO. 1100
THE LIONEL CORP. NEW YORK
MADE IN U. S. OF AMERICA
THE HAND CAR'S MOTOR-WORKS AND BELL-RINGING FUNCTION ARE IN STRONG WORKING CONDITION.
THE UNDERCARRIAGE'S 4 CONNECTING TABS USED TO HOLD THE MOTOR-WORKS TO THE HOUSING ARE STILL SOLIDLY IN PLACE.
THE MOUNTING HARDWARE FOR MICKEY AND MINNIE TO THE HANDCAR PLATFORM ARE SOLID.
DISNEY'S COLLABORATION WITH LIONEL TO PRODUCE THIS AND SIMILAR DISNEY LIONEL TOYS DURING THE DEPRESSION YEARS LITERALLY SAVED LIONEL FROM BANKRUPTCY.
MR. DISNEY HAD A GREAT ADMIRATION FOR LIONEL AND DID NOT WANT TO SEE THEM MEET THEIR DEMISE.
THE ORIGINAL 2 RAIL TRACK SET IS IN OVERALL VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH ALL CONNECTING PINS INCLUDED.
THE ORIGINAL 2-PIECE BOX SET IS IN OVERALL GOOD CONDITION WITH A VARIETY OF COSMETIC AND/OR CONSTRUCTION DISTRACTIONS.
THE BOX MEASURES APPROXIMATELY
8 1/4" X 11 1/4" X 2 1/2".
A NEW "GIFT" ACCESSORY IS ALSO INCLUDED WITH THE SET. THIS SET CONSISTS OF A BOXED "HALLMARK" HAND CAR ORNAMENT WITH A METAL DISPLAY STAND(INCLUDED WITH THIS SET).
PLEASE VIEW MY MANY ENCLOSED PHOTOS FOR THE BEST TOOL TO USE IN DETERMINING THE QUALITY OF THE PIECES THAT MAKE UP THIS VERY SPECIAL SET FOR YOURSELF.
