Vintage Tinplate Clockwork Dockyard Crane, Made in Russia
A vintage tinplate clockwork Dockyard Crane with blue base,
grey dock floor, red crane with black + white jib that raises,
lowers and swivels around, made in Russia by an
unknown maker probably in the 1950's or 60's.
Measures 8.5 inches long by 3.25 wide and 3.75 inches
tall with the jib lowered. It is in very good condition with
some playwear, marks and minor fading to the cab
side and roof. The crane works well when wound (no
key supplied, but easily obtained) – the left hand lever
manually raises and lowers the jib and the right lever
moves the crane around either to the left or right.
Marked on the rear of the crane cab with a maker’s
mark and under the base with “Foreign”.
