Jumping Rabbit No. 33/60, 1931. Vintage Tin Plate Novelty Toy, Wells/Wells-Brimtoy Distributors Ltd., Great Britain.

Jumping Rabbit No. 33/60, Wells-Brimtoy Distributors Ltd.

Original vintage tin plate 'Jumping Rabbit', manufactured by Wells/Wells-Brimtoy Ltd. The toy is not marked with any identifying marks. It was introduced in 1931 by Wells and is described as Jumping Rabbit Style No. 33. It appears in later Wells-Brimtoy catalogues with the same name but as No. 60. I'm not aware if it's possible to distinguish between pre and post war examples of this toy so dates to 1930's-50's. With key. No box.

Mechanism:- Clockwork / Wind-Up. Separate key.

Action:- Jumping toy. It's a little bit more sophisticated compared to most jumping toys in that both front and rear legs move. The result is that it may adopt either a running or sitting posture.

Size:- 5.75 inches long approx.

Condition:- In remarkably good condition for one of these toys which jump about, fall over and generally get well used. The lithographed body sections are not chipped or scratched. There is a little chipping to the painted base of the body and some discolouration to one back leg.

Postage / Shipping Costs:- When ordering multiple items please await invoice for total. Invoicing allows me to keep postage / shipping costs to an absolute minimum.
