Rare Wilkins Phaeton Clockwork Automobile Pressed Steel & Cast Iron

Here is a wonderful looking cast iron and pressed steel Phaeton open seat Automobile from Wilkins, circa. early 1900s. Wow! You will not find this toy very often. Wilkins first car made along with its horse drawn toys. This is made of pressed steel and cast iron. The seat, frame, wheels and figure are cast iron. Measures approx. 9" long. I have never seen this in red. Nice original paint. Wind-up mechanism on the bottom when turned moves the back wheels. This one is not catching when wound and will need fixing. A great early toy - don't miss. (last one I saw sold for $2250 at the Ward Kimball auction 2004).

Price: $688 SORRY! SOLD!
