Description: This is a hard to find pre war vintage, Made in America wind up tin toy by The Lindstrom Toy Company of Bridgeport, Connecticut, circa 1928-1932. The action is fabulous; when wound up and released on a flat surface, it depicts "Johnny" the clown aggressively dancing around in circles (see the attached video with this listing). The condition is very good and completely original with zero repairs. The red paint to the front of the clown is a little bit faded; albeit, there is no paint touch up anywhere and no additions to the lithography. The toy is pretty scarce. Markings include "Johnny" on his back; "Lindstrom Made in U.S.A" and "Pat. Applied For" lower legs (see images). Dimensions: 8" high x 3" deep x 3 1/4" wide Provenance: From a recently acquired West Coast collection of fine quality tin toys. Please see my other listings of vintage toys
