In the mid-century, if you were a child, there was no greater
gift than a toy crane! With it you could now play at construction!
Construction in the big cities was everywhere! Skyscrapers
had been shooting up for decades and peeking through
holes in fences at construction workers building a new building
were one of the joys of big city living!This handmade toy crane is a work of art. The neck and
hook both operate on threaded spool type mechanisms
and the wheels of the crane roll and the body turns
independently of them - just like the real thing!This toy was clearly made by someone who really,
really loved their child and wanted to give them the
best - on a budget. And they succeeded!In excellent vintage working condition! A great toy for yourself or
a loved one! A great accent for a NY penthouse
or big city dwelling!
