Picked this up at Sandown, what a peach, a
bit dented on the right side, but for something that was probably twenty years
old when I was born, and made of the most frangible material ever used for
plastic playthings, I think it's survival to date is a bit of a miracle!
As well has the standard vac-formed halves
welded together, this Japanese toy has Mazac wheels running through tubular-axles
on wire rods and a cotton-threat rein, all have also survived - a real peach,
it's even still got a piece of flash between the rear legs of the horse
hanging-on buy a hair's width!
I love the footman in a fez, who looks
surprised to have got the gig, while the 'Archbishop-Patriarch of All Russia' seems to be
driving!
