It is surprising that a paper litho on wood display would survive all these years. Designed for a show window display in the 1890s. An upright engine (easily found) was shown as part of the display. The engine will run the two lines of shafting to make the two cardboard blacksmiths weld a bar with their hammer blows. Both an interesting addition to any steam toy collection as well as to an early American advertising collection. Very rare as very few are known. CORRECTION – Engine not included.
Condition: (Very Good - Excellent).
Item Dimensions: 10" x 17". Base: 18".
