Vere rare tou in excellent condition! A bisque-head boy with painted facial features and black short curly hair has a closed mouth, carton torso, wooden lower legs and arms, painted black high boots, and a black velvet costume with braid trim and matching cap, is seated upon a metal velocipede with three spoked wheels having original red and gold painted finish and ornately-arched details on the frame. When wound, the velocipede moves forward and in circles as the boy appears to pedal and turn the handle bar. Generally excellent. Marks: F.V (large raised letters on underside of mechanical box.
