Vintage Ferdinand Strauss Santee Claus Tin Windup Toy.

### ANOTHER FANTASTIC TOY FROM THE “PA TOYS FROM TIMES PAST” collection ###

Ferdinand Strauss Santee Claus Sleigh with two prancing reindeer. Two bells are attached to each of the reindeer’s mouths are replacements and jingle as they move back and forth but are exactly as their original ones. Lithography is quite bright and shiny as many have had sun damage and look dull and drably. The Santa is original as some are usually missing and have been replaced with a reproduction. And again with most you will see the sleigh usually has rust on the bottom edge. This one is absolutely clean. This toy has been gone over by a professional tin toy doctor and is certified to be in 100% working condition. Guaranteed! The reins have been replaced as the originals have since rotted away. You don’t see many of these for sale and with Christmas just months away would make a great conversation piece as it would be just as a display. Any questions just ask. Thanks

We ship with extreme care! Please see my feedback to see what people say about my packaging. Of course there is free local pick up and we can meet to assist if you are near Pennsylvania or driving through. We require signature confirmation on most items above $100, unless you request otherwise. Also, we have discounts with FedEx & eBay on shipping which do not always show up in eBay estimates on shipping. We try to refund what we can when there is a notable difference, but we do not know until we actually process the shipping order. Please follow our store if you love rare antiques, primitives and collectibles of many types. We scour the land for the rarest and neatest of items for our buyers who love them. We usually have about 150 items in various price ranges from $5 to $6K+, but our inventory changes often. We sell to collectors, resellers but mostly to people who simply love rare and nifty items. It is our honor to offer these treasures to you.

Please note our feedback & Buy with confidence. We offer premium quality items and provide lots of pictures (we count on our detailed photos to assist with describing the treasure) to assist you. Our packing is top notch. We take care to get your new treasure safely home. Any questions just ask. Thanks. Condition is "Used".

FEEDBACK POLICY: I have my automated system setup to leave positive feedback for a buyer after payment has been received and after I have received positive feedback from the buyer. I have it set up this way as I have no way of knowing if a transaction is complete until I receive positive feedback from you. If for ANY reason at all you feel that I deserve ANYTHING but positive feedback, please contact me PRIOR to leaving the feedback. I will do everything in my power to make sure the transaction is completed in a satisfactory way for you. Please keep in mind that in some situations that my options are limited, but a refund will always be offered for a returned product. In my opinion, a full refund is still a positive transaction as I have worked with you to make you no worse off than before the transaction was initiated. Please do not leave something other than positive feedback and then contact me with the issue. With ebay's new feedback rules, neutral ratings come off a seller's feedback score in the same manner that negative feedbacks do. So, again, I ask for you to contact me with any issues prior to leaving feedback so I can make the transaction a positive experience for you. Thanks
