Description: SCARCE PRISTINE👍DISNEY 1936 LIONEL DONALD DUCK & PLUTO HAND CAR WIND-UP TOY SET Click images to enlarge Description SCARCE PRISTINE : DISNEY 1936 "LIONEL DONALD DUCK AND PLUTO HAND CAR # 1107" MECHANICAL WIND-UP TOY WITH A REPRODUCTION WIND-UP KEY AND 8 SECTION 2 RAIL VINTAGE METAL TRACK SET. THE TRACK PIECES ARE IN OVERALL VERY GOOD OR BETTER CONDITION. ALL CONNECTOR PINS ARE IN PLACE. THE SET THAT I'M INCLUDING IS BASICALLY A STARTER/DISPLAY USE SET. THE ORIGINAL TRACK SET THAT CAME WITH THE HAND CAR WAS THE 2 RAIL VERSION. ADDITIONAL VINTAGE "0" SCALE TRACK PIECES ARE AVAILABLE ON EBAY ALL THE TIME. YOU CAN FIND SOME 2 RAIL "0" SCALE VERSIONS WHICH ARE SCARCER AND MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE 3 RAIL VERSION. DISNEY'S COLLABORATION WITH LIONEL TO PRODUCE THIS AND SIMILAR DISNEY LIONEL TOYS DURING THE DEPRESSION YEARS LITERALLY SAVED LIONEL FROM BANKRUPTCY. MR. DISNEY HAD A GREAT ADMIRATION FOR LIONEL AND DID NOT WANT TO SEE THEM MEET THEIR DEMISE. I JUST HAD THE MOTOR-WORKS PROFESSIONALLY DETAIL SERVICED (08/2024) TO INSURE MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS FOR THE NEW OWNER(A $142 INVESTMENT). THE SERVICE INCLUDED THE REPLACEMENT OF THE MAIN-SPRING AND RATCHET BUSHING. THE HAND CAR SET IS IN OVERALL SCARCE PRISTINE(EXCELLENT PLUS) CONDITION WITH ONLY THE SLIGHTEST OF COSMETIC AND/OR CONSTRUCTION DISTRACTIONS. THIS TOY HAS ONE OF THE MORE INTERESTING MECHANICAL ACTIONS THAN OTHER SIMILAR TOYS OF THAT ERA. WHEN THE WIND-UP HAND CAR CIRCLES THE TRACK, DONALD PUMPS HIS HAND BAR UP AND DOWN WHILE PLUTO'S HEAD IS SUSPENDED AND GRAVITY MOVES IT. DONALD ALSO MAKES A VERY PRONOUNCED QUACKING-LIKE SOUND. DONALD DUCK AND PLUTO ARE MADE UP OF HAND-PAINTED COMPOSITION MATERIAL EXCEPT FOR PLUTO'S BLACK CARDBOARD EARS. THE HANDCAR HAS AN APPROXIMATE OVERALL SIZE OF 3 1/2" X 10 1/2" X 6 3/4" TALL. THE DOG-HOUSE WHITE BASE WITH A DARK GREEN SPRAY-PAINTED METAL ROOF IS ONE OF 4 COLOR VARIATIONS MADE. THE ROOF ALSO CAME IN ORANGE, RED, OR DARK GREEN. THE LITHOGRAPHED ORANGE PRINTED METAL AUTHENTICITY PLATE ON ONE SIDE OF THE HAND CAR IS IN OVERALL PRISTINE (EXCELLENT PLUS) CONDITION. THE METAL PLATE COLORS ARE FREE OF CRAZING(SCARCE). THE FOLLOWING IMPRINT CAN BE FOUND ON THE PLATE: DONALD DUCK (C) WALT DISNEY HANDCAR NO. 1107 THE LIONEL CORP. NEW YORK MADE IN U. S. OF AMERICA THE NOISE-MAKING "QUACKING" CAPABILITY WORKS AS DESIGNED! THE ALL-IMPORTANT 4 CONNECTING TABS USED TO SECURE THE MOTOR-WORKS TO THE RED PLATFORM FROM THE UNDERSIDE OF THE SAME ARE ALL STILL IN PLACE(MANY BREAK OFF AFTER YEARS OF PLAY-WEAR AGING). PLEASE VIEW MY MANY ENCLOSED PHOTO REFERENCES FOR THE BEST TOOL TO USE IN DETERMINING THE EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY OF THE PIECES THAT MAKE UP THIS WONDERFUL HANDCAR SET FOR YOURSELF.
