Santa has a bicycle, a bell and apparently a mechanical disagreement with forward motion.
This colorful vintage wind-up Christmas toy features Santa riding a tin lithographed tricycle or bicycle with bright holiday graphics, striped wheels and a small bell mechanism. The toy winds and the jingle mechanism operates, but it does not propel itself across the table. In other words, the festive enthusiasm is intact even if the drivetrain has retired.
The lithographed graphics include holiday imagery and woodland animals, making this a particularly fun display piece for a vintage Christmas collection.
Condition: Vintage toy with paint and lithograph wear, scratches, age-related grime and surface marks. Wind-up mechanism winds and the bell/jingle operates, but the toy does not roll or propel itself under power. Sold as a collectible, not a modern children's toy.
