Description :

Pair of tin toys - one vintage & one a modern repro.

1960s tin Space Elephant from KO Yoshiya of Japan is seldom seen for sale and hard to find (the original red KO Yoshiya Space Dog is relative common). It runs with a wind-up clockwork mechanism that powers several functions including sparks, wobbling action, flapping ears, and the mouth opening and closing.  It is complete with the exception of a missing plastic cover over the back area. It winds up and moves/wobbles as it should, but currently no sparks - it needs a new flint. While there is some tarnishing, the elephant is in good condition overall for its age with only minor play wear. Measures a bit over 5" H to top of lever and 8.25" L from end of trunk to tip of tail.

1999 modern reproduction of the KO Yoshiya Space Dog (named Rover) by Schylling, Red tin in vintage style, it is #1978 on bottom, comes in original box, and has certificate of authenticity included. Measures 4.5" H. 

Shipping available only through Fed Ex Pack & Ship
