- Description
- The toy penguin is tin and covered with a black and white fabric. His stomach and underneath his chin, and arms the fabric is white. The remaining body is black fabric. The penguin still has both of his plastic eyes, which seem to be in good condition. His nose and feet appear to be tin and are painted orange with black detailing for the nails and nostrils. The wind-up device, located at the viewer left, is also assumed to be tin and has been painted purple. The penguin also has a orange bow tie located just beneath the neck where you would expect a bow tie to be. There is identical blue patent stickers underneath the arms on both the viewer left and right side. The patent sticker contains the words “TRADE MARK” with the MT (Masudaya) logo directly underneath and “MODERN TOYS P. PATENT” “MADE IN JAPAN” all in silver lettering. The patent sticker on the viewer right is more worn and has suffered some discolouring. The penguin also has metal wheels on the bottom of the feet. The penguin is still functioning; when it is wound the head, wings and mouth move and the wheels underneath move the penguin forward.Made in Japan.
