Description from the seller

Unique Art - G.I. Joe and His Jouncing Jeep - U.S. 1940's

Litho on tin in beautiful colors. G.I. Joe in his jeep. In very good condition, lithographs rich in details and inscriptions. Complex clockwork mechanism with its built-in key.

In a very good working condition, with a particular and funny movement: the jeep goes in different directions, back and forth, it tilts forward as if it were braking and the soldier springs forward pushed by the braking; the helmet moves on his face. In the same way, the jeep goes back and, thanks to the rear hook, it rears up and rotates and then goes again.

Marked with: "Unique Art., "MFG. CO. INC. Newark, “N.J:" & "Made in U.S.A." & “G.I. Joe Jouncing Jeep”
