Gibbs Mfg. Co. Tin Lithographed Racing Horses Pull Toy *SOLD*

Gibbs Mfg. Co. Tin Lithographed Racing Horses Pull Toy 

This tin lithographed pull toy with racing horses and jockeys is unmarked but was most likely manufactured by Gibbs Mfg. Co. of Canton, Ohio. There is a possibility that they even used Chein patterns to make this toy.  

When pulled or pushed forward the racehorses move up and down in a perpetual race against each other.  

This piece is in very good all original condition with no breaks, restorations, repairs, or touch-ups. This piece shows the usual patina, fading, dust, chips, scuffs, surface rust, dents, scratches, missing accessories, and wear that are to be expected from age and play. This is approximately 25” L with each car measuring approximately 7 ½” L.  We invite you to view the photos to further determine quality and condition.
