WIND UP MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB DOLL TIN TOY MINT IN BOX 1950'S JAPAN WORKS GREAT

Description

This listing is for a fully functional vintage wind up
Mary Had a Little Lamb Doll
from the 1950's with original packaging! I listed it as used since it has obviously been opened and taken out of the box, however, it appears to have had very little, if any, actual use and was likely stored inside the box for its entire life. When the key is wound, Mary scoots (walks) and turns in different directions, all while her lamb is following behind her. She is carrying what appears to be her homework in her right hand and a set of books in her left hand. The toy is mint and super clean. There is a black speck of paint at her hairline (left forehead area) which I believe may be from when her eyes were originally painted on. The lamb is made of celluloid plastic and is on a tin extension piece that clips to the back of the doll. The original box has the classic nursery rhyme printed on it.  The top lid and flaps underneath it have some clear tape repairs as shown in the last two photos. Other than that, the rest of the box appears excellent and has nice color. This toy measures approximately 5 1/2" tall and 6" long with the extension/lamb attached.
Please view all photos closely as they are considered part of the item description and feel free to ask any questions you may have. I can also send additional photos upon request.

. If payment is not received within that time frame, offers will be extended to second highest bidders or sales will be canceled and items relisted.
SHIPPING
: All items typically ship within 1 business day of cleared payment.  I also combine shipping to save money when possible. For buyers within the United States, if you win more than one auction, please wait for me to send you a combined shipping invoice. If purchasing more than one “buy it now” item, simply add them to your cart and select “request invoice from seller” on the checkout screen. This will send me a request for a combined shipping invoice.  If for some reason items cannot be shipped together, I will let you know.
For international sales, I use the Global Shipping Program and they do not allow combined shipping. Each item will need to be paid for individually, including the shipping costs, and they will be mailed in separate shipments.

Once it leaves the shipping center, the Global Shipping Program is responsible for the safe delivery of your item as well as any issues with damage or lost items.

If there is an issue with your item or shipment, please contact me immediately to see if we can work something out. If an item ends up getting damaged or lost in transit, I will handle matters on my end. For international sales, as already mentioned above, the Global Shipping Program is responsible for all issues with damaged or lost items once they leave the shipping center.
