1935 Tin Lithographed Windup Blondies Jalopy Dagwood & Alexander Car. We have for you a ca. 1935 tin, lithographed, windup Blondies Jalopy with Dagwood & Alexander manufactured by Louis Marx & Company of New York City, New York. When wound with a key and switched on this working jalopy travels forward with bump and go action as Dagwood and Alexanders heads turn randomly. There appears to be some touchups on the edges of the front fenders.
This does include a key, but we do not think it is original to this car. This piece is in very good all original condition with no breaks, restorations, or repairs. This piece shows the usual patina, fading, dust, chips, scuffs, surface rust, scratches, and wear that are to be expected from age and play. This is approximately 16 ¾ L. We invite you to view the photos to further determine quality and condition.
