<p>[QUOTE="Jason Pferdeort, post: 332367, member: 5630"]Hello! I searched on Worthpoint for a good while and came across your exact horse. When I search on these old horse pull toys I focus on the base. The base to your horse has a unique shape. There is always the possibility that a horse could be remounted but yours appeared original so I was looking for another original toy. It helps to know that the toy is hide-covered as that narrows down results. Then the material of the eyes can come into consideration - yours look to be glass - am I right? With your horse toy being hide covered and having glass eyes I would agree that the toy is Victorian (maybe c1880-1890?) I sold a cow pull toy that was hide covered and glass-eyed and the cow was from 1890. The match I found on Worthpoint sold on December 9, 2017 for $155. It is the exact same dimensions and of similar condition. I would upload the photo from Worthpoint but I'm not sure about copyright. It is your horse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
