Automaton dates most likely to the 1930s. It would have been used in a window display, quite possibly at Christmas time given the wrapping of the box. Window display is motion. When plugged in and turned on, it shows an elf or gnome ironing. Quite possibly was in the front of a laundry store or probably a general store for an attention-grabber. CONDITION: Shows areas of wear. Some paper loss to the paper loss that covers the bottom box with the motor. Elf has original clothing, shows some tattered-ness but with a great early automaton look.

Condition: (Good).

Item Dimensions: 22 - 1/4" x 14" x 31".
WINDOW DISPLAY AUTOMATON OF AN ELF IRONING.
