We’re very excited to be offering a very special group of 1950’s through 1970’s tin vintage toys, fresh to market after being in storage for decades at the collector’s home. Quality ranges from “top of the line” new in boxes for discerning collectors, but also includes wonderful opportunities for the beginning Toy collector as well. VERY entertaining, delightful adult collectibles for the “young at heart!”
Pictured here is one of the MOST fun of all! FISHING Pecheur (French for fisherman) combination battery operated and remote control toy, made in China 1970’s. ORIGINAL box with wonderful graphics. Early 1970’s toys made in China are also considered very collectible. NOT the same quality as current mass produced toys from CHINA, these vintage toys are very nicely made.
This Toy includes vinyl head fisherman in his boat, holding a fishing pole with magnet. Set includes 5 magnetized fish .
Remote Control allows you to raise up his arm once fish has been “caught”, and IF you are patient and get it just right, he reels the fish into boat and slaps it with other hand to drop it into boat! Doesn’t come easy to do this – takes arranging things “just so”, but you can see in Video that we did it! Find battery operated toys in our connectibles store.
- You also can easily control the boat taking a “rocking ride” that looks like he’s riding the waves looking for his next catch! I LOVE this toy – it is incredibly fun!
- 12″ long
- Overall condition is very good but needs a clean-up. Click on photos to enlarge and see details.
