Description

This antique Strauss Jackee toy is in good working condition. There is some mild scratching to the tin, mostly notable near where Jackee’s feet hit the boat. Jackee shows some moderate discoloration and oxidation from age. Most of the discoloration is from nicotine, and there is a moderate smoke odor. There is very minimal oxidation on the boat. The wind up is strong, and when wound the toy functions as intended.
