Hi,
NOTE BEFORE I DESCRIBE THE ITEM:
I have been collecting vintage toys for over 30 years. I was living in Europe for the past 10 years and pick up some great sets. I just moved back to the USA and have too many toys to fit in my new place -- so please check my listing over the next few weeks/months for an opportunity to buy some of my collection. I will be selling many rare and valuable tin wind ups, trains, cars, sets from U.S. Zone Germany, England, Russia and USA: So, please check by often and Happy Bidding!
ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Item: OLD VINTAGE TIN SOVIET BLOCK ROCKET. made in HUNGARY! Wonderful old tin toy from Hungary during the soviet bloc era. I Think it commemorates the soviet's launching the first man in the world into outer space!
Choose the BUY IT NOW option for quick Xmas Delivery!
- Rocket has neat litho with English and Russian writing. CCCP (USSR) on Rocket. also written Interkosmos.
- Friction action moves rocket forward till it hits a wall. That makes the rocket stand up and entrance ladder come down. neat picture of russian astronaut inside. It has a little problems standing up straight. I dont know, but I think is missing two other tails. It had one tail? marked CCCP (USSR) -- maybe it needs two more tails for stability? in either case, its are really nice piece to display!
- Clearly marked Made in Hungary. Polimetal Rt. Gyor.
- General wear consistent for its age.
RARE OLD VINTAGE TIN Wind up TOY from THE FORMER RUSSIAN / SOVIET BLOC. ITS a fantastic DISPLAY PIECE!
