(Japan, 1930s) A Rare Donald Duck celluloid toy manufactured in Japan in the 1930s. Donald is attached to a painted tin base with wind-up mechanism and built-in key. A metal rod through Donald holds a celluloid "umbrella" with celluloid figures of Donald and Pluto. When wound, the umbrella spins, and Donald rolls forward. Several sizes of this toy were made. The is the larger (and rarer) version, standing 9" tall. Donald Has Jointed Arms (the dangling figure too) and is in fine condition with some paint fading and a small tear on the celluloid where his foot attaches to the base. The wind-up mechanism functions well.
