c.1960 Haji, Mechanical Bucking Bronco With Cowboy
Unusual tin litho reminiscent of an early Lehmann toy; this is the Mechanical Bucking Bronco with Cowboy manufactured by Haji, Japan. It's all tin litho and works great. There is no box for this toy. Toy features multiple actions; front legs kick up and down, rear legs do the same, while cowboy moves back and forth depending on the motion of the horse. Beautifully detailed with multicolored tin litho figures (horse and cowboy). Only the cowboy's hat (plastic) and reins (fiber cord) are not metal. Oh, and the ears are painted leather and original to the toy. It's marked with the manufacturer's trademark on the left rear corner of the saddle. First time I've seen this toy. Large toy measuring 8" long, 7" tall, and approximately 2" wide. Date Sold: Mar. 2011
Price Sold: $ 100
