Duck Shoot Action Target Game Superior Toy T Cohn $125 (5)
This is a Superior Duck Shoot game that was manufactured by T Cohn. It features 3 flat cardboard ducks that mount onto the framework, and when "shot" they fall down and hang by the safety chains. The framework has a spiral wire on the inner tube, which after it's lifted up, spins the ducks around while you try to shoot them. The arms for the ducks set them out at about a 2 foot circle. The framework will extend to about 44 inches tall. It has the original working gun and 4 darts.
One of the darts is original and in good shape. One is definitely different, and the other 2 have had repairs to them in the past. The box has some tape repairs on the outer sleeve and wear to the edges. The ducks are in decent shape but do have some wear to their edges. L169 -
Paper Litho Alphabet Soldier Stacking Toy $100 (9)
This is an alphabet and soldier paper litho stacking toy. It features 12 wooden pieces that have 2 slots on the side and a slot on the top and bottom to stack them. There are 8 round discs plus a base to build your tower. The soldier/alphabet pieces have a soldier on one side and 3 letters on the other. There are a couple of the pieces that have the groove cracked out, and there is some litho loss and cracking. On the soldier side, there is some pen or pencil marks on a few of them. There are no marks on any of the pieces which say who made it, but I would lean toward it being US. The base is 5 3/4" square and the soldier/alphabet pieces are 5 3/4" tall and just over 1 1/4" wide. L287 -
German Paper Litho Accordion Bakers $110 (9)
This is a paper litho over thin wood accordion. The 2 figures on each side depict a man and a woman who appear to be bakers. When squeezed together the paper bellows in between them emits an accordion sound. There is some wear to the paper litho here and there, the worst of it being an area of loss to the left of the man's chin. The bellows is pushed in a little on one side, but it still plays, though it takes a few "pumps" to get it started. The woman's apron is stamped "Germany". N423 -

There is some paper stuck on top of the litho and on the back and bottom of the seat. There is some loss to the original paper litho on both the seat and the back.

Bliss Paper Litho on Wood Antique Plinko Marble Game $100 (12)
This is an antique Bliss paper litho over wood marble game. It is kind of like Plinko, where you drop a marble at the top and it falls down through the pins, and lands in the scoring bins at the bottom. It has a clown-like face at the top and what we think to be Little Jack Horner from the nursery rhyme in the center, as well as the Bliss logo. It is about 18" tall.
It is missing the marble cup at the top and the support bar on the back to hold the game up, but it does lean very well against anything you want to display it. There is some crushing and separation to the cardboard side and slots, especially on the right side when looking at it. Some of the nails have been pushed too far through, and there is some darkening and staining to the litho. J185 -
Flying Clowns Wooden Spring Toy Game in Box $60 (7)
This is a Flying Clown game. It was made by Dutch Novelty Shops from a patent by Orville Wright. It come with the original box but the box is missing the ends and has some writing on one side. The toy features a clown that you "shoot" off it's seat and it is supposed to land on the top bar and spin the tow clowns. I have yet to have it actually work when I have played with it. It has had very little use and the colors are strong. It is about 18 1/2 inches long. L676 -

Gong Bell 202 Ri-De-O Rocking Horse NIB NOS SALE $40 (6)
This is a Gong Bell Ri-De-O horse that came out of the box for the first time to take these pictures. I debated on opening but wanted to pack the stuff better to ship and make sure the contents were in good shape. I just cut the tape on one flap. It was packed in 1957, has a news paper from August 57 in it. The rocking horse it self is in great shape with very minor wear that looks like stuff from making it. The box is in great shape also.
