RARE VINTAGE MODERN TOYS CARGO SHIP FREIGHTER TIN LITHO WIND UP TOY BOAT - JAPAN

Description

Very Rare, Vintage Modern Toys Cargo/Freighter wind up tin litho ship boat. The wind up is strong and will continue to turn the propeller for a while. The wind up key is removable but was left in for the pictures and comes with the tin ship. This tin toy is from 1956-1958 as can be seen from the 2nd and 3rd pics from a Japanese trade journal dated April 1958 at the bottom of the journal ad.  The 1950's tin freighter in this listing has yellow, tin metal overhead crane structures. The third just in front of the moveable crane is missing. With the moveable crane there it is not evident and does not impact the display or collectability of this awesome and rare tin wind toy from the 50's.
This tin toy is rarely seen or offered for sale. Although it has light corrosion throughout it is a fantastic subject and is all complete except for the third yellow overhead crane structure just aft of the cabin and just forward of the moveable crane. The detail is great with original American flag at the rear, rudder, metal propeller, tin metal overhead cranes, swivel crane with "hook" and strong friction wind. Makes for a fantastic display and addition to any tin toy collection. If you have any questions please contact me. Thank you.
Length is 14" (13" not including the rudder)
