Vintage Hadson Occupied Japan “Crawling Baby” Celluloid/Plastic Windup Toy in Box *SOLD*

Vintage Hadson Occupied Japan “Crawling Baby” Celluloid/Plastic Windup Toy in Box

This is an adorable celluloid/plastic “Crawling Baby” windup manufactured by Hadson in Occupied Japan. The phrase “Occupied Japan” is found on many collectibles made in Japan after World War II during the years 1947 to 1952.

The baby is wound by a dedicated key located on her tummy. When wound she crawls forward on her hands and knees. The windup mechanism works as it should. There are no tears in her clothes and no cracks or dents in the celluloid. The baby is marked “Japan” on its right inner leg. The box is in all excellent original condition and has been wrapped to protect it.

Our example of this Crawling Baby windup is in excellent, near mint, original condition with no breaks, restorations, repairs, or touch ups. This piece shows the usual patina, dust, chips, scuffs, scratches, and wear that are to be expected from age and display. It is approximately 5” L. We invite you to view the photos to further determine quality and condition.
