Early 1900s Antique Push Along Toy with a St Bernard Dog. - $200 (Lake Forest)
QR Code Link to This Post
This early 1900s vintage toy is a push along toy with a St Bernard Dog with a seat to place a child on.
The St Bernard Mountain Dog is known as rescue dog with a barrel on the collar around the neck.
A vintage toy on wheels made of solid plastic like material with a metal walking frame, metal and rubber wheels and metal footrests.
A toy which is still in original condition, so never re-painted.
Unfortunately, the barrel around his neck was lost through time.
Some of the wheels are tight and do not roll very well (needs a little tinkering). Original rubber still intact, but dry and worn. I have viewed rubber tire replacements available on-line that are very inexpensive.
I have researched and found nearly identical toys made by Tri-Ang, Triang, Ireland, Great Brittain from the 1950s for sale over $900.00 when complete with the barrel. This may be made by the same company, just much earlier.
Any viewer information would be greatly appreciated. I could update this post with more detailed information.
A great antique display or could be functional with a little tinkering of the wheels.
