Item Details

19th century Crandalls John Gilpin Toy

We are proud to offer a rare survivor from the late 19th century. In the form of a fully articulated child’s toy. Made from pine, detailed in lithograph, and with a maker’s mark stamped on the inside leg of the horse as shown. This example comes with two mounting blocks, one for the man and one for the horse. The man’s hat is removable, and both figures are fully articulated with brass joints. With a folk art and naïve charm, they sure don’t make them like this anymore.
