Marx Horse and Cart Windup *SOLD*

Marx Horse and Cart Windup

Gorgeous Marx Horse and Cart; this is an early windup by the company and the horse still has the trailing leg wheel.  These were later deleted as a cost savings.

The tin litho horse and cart are all original and in excellent condition as shown in the extensive photos.  The under side of the carriage is raw metal, so it has the expected oxidation.  Gearing and spring are in very good to excellent condition.  The horse and carriage lithos pop and are bright.
