Description
RARE COMPLETE "HIGH GRADE" LIMITED "PROMOTIONAL" 1 YEAR ONLY EDITION:
DISNEY 1938 "ROCKING AND QUACKING" DONALD DUCK CART STYLE" PULL TOY #550 BY FISHER PRICE.
DONALD'S ARMS ARE HELD TOGETHER WITH A THICK PIECE OF RUBBER AND THEN INSERTED BY HAND DOWN A PRE-DIE-CUT SLOT FOR THE SAME.
I'M AMAZED THAT THE ORIGINAL RUBBER IS STILL VIABLE WITH ONE CAVEAT:
THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RUBBER HAS ABOUT A 1/2" STRESS TEAR.
THE ARMS ARE STILL HOLDING, SO I'M GOING TO HOLD OFF ON REPLACING THE RUBBER CONNECTOR BAND WHICH KEEPS THE TOY ALL ORIGINAL AT THIS POINT.
I DO NOT BELIEVE THE THE ARMS HAVE EVER BEEN REMOVED FROM THE TOY SINCE FIRST INSTALLED.
THE TOY MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 4 5/8" X 10 3/4" X 9" TALL.
THE TOY IS IN OVERALL EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH MINIMAL COSMETIC AND/OR CONSTRUCTION DISTRACTIONS TO THE SAME(MOSTLY THE RUBBER BELT PIECE THAT HOLDS DONALD'S 2 ARMS TOGETHER AS MENTIONED ABOVE).
MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE DECALS ARE AS CLOSE TO 100% INTACT AS YOU WILL EVER FIND.
THE COLORS ON THE DECAL ARE STILL QUITE VIBRANT.
THERE IS A BIT OF VERTICAL PAPER RIPPLING TO THE DECALS ON THE RIGHT SIDE FROM EXPOSURE TO NATURAL ELEMENTS OVER THE DECADES.
THE TOY COMES WITH LITHOGRAPHED PAPER DECALS AFFIXED TO EACH SIDE AND THE JOINTED ARMS ATTACHED TO THE FIGURAL DONALD DUCK WOOD BASE.
WHEN THE TOY IS PULLED, DONALD ROCKS FORWARD AND BACK WITH STRONG ACTION CAUSING HIS ARMS TO FLAP AROUND AS UNIQUELY DESIGNED TO ACCOMPLISH.
DONALD ALSO BELTS OUT A VERY AUTHENTIC "DUCK QUACKING" SOUND AS THE TOY IS PULLED.
MR. DISNEY DECIDED TO MANUFACTURE JUST A SMALL NUMBER OF THESE TOYS AS A "PROMOTIONAL" TOOL TO SUPPORT INTEREST IN ALL OF THEIR MASS PRODUCED LINE OFFERINGS.
I DO NOT KNOW WHY THE TOY WAS NOT CARRIED FORWARD IN FOLLOWING YEARS AS A REGULAR MASS PRODUCED LINE ITEM.
I THINK THAT THE TOY WOULD HAVE BEEN A BIG SELLER WITH THE UNIQUE MECHANICAL FEATURE OFFERING.
AUTHENTICITY MARKINGS THAT CAN BE FOUND INTEGRATED ON THE LABELING READS AS FOLLOWS IN BLACK:
