Early Bing Steam Engine, Germany *SOLD*
Early Bing Steam Engine, Germany
This stunning early Bing steam engine features all the early German maker’s goodness in a clean and very large toy. Pictures is a ruler, penny, and pen to demonstrate the very large scale of this toy.
Inside the burner is present as is an oil container.
The toy’s base is actually original painted wood with brass tubes and hardware bolted on. The brick boiler base had missing paint around the burner (very normal) and has local black overpaint. Original valves and tubes are present. Counter weight is a replacement and one oil cap may be a replacement.
Pistons, govenor, and belt moved freely when the toy was checked. We did not light up the burner, as we didn’t want to damage paintwork.
Please see the two very early bing accessories sold here that would make great additions.
