<p>[QUOTE="kbbpll, post: 9661413, member: 84574"]I've had this toy since I was a young child, at least 60 years. My grandfather might have played with it too, and he was born in 1906. So I'm thinking it might be over 100 years old, but who knows. It could have come through my grandmother as well, which might make it older. It's been sitting on my mantle for so long I thought I would see if anyone can provide any info. If there's a better resource to ask, I'd appreciate it. I don't care about value, just the history. Obviously it's pretty beat up. It's 4.25" long from tip to tail. There are no markings anywhere on it to indicate manufacturer. I've poked around and there are a lot of different types of these but I have not found a match. Thanks for any comments or resources. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]470567[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]470568[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
