[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 265930, member: 51"]Recently helped with a fundraiser garage sale and my neighbor brought a few things over to sell. This was in one of the boxes and she was going to toss it in the trash because condition isn't great. She is near 80, is Swiss/German and said it was "her grandmother's". I set it aside. Obviously cosmetic condition is poor, and the mechanism is broken as well. Metal case, wooden back. What would you call this kind of toy? Do you think it has any value in this condition? Thanks.
