~ Gunthermann (Germany) Tinplate Clockwork Arab on Horseback, c.1930’s ~
The figure is dressed predominately in white, blue and pale green. The man is seating astride the black horse with a red saddle and bridle. The piece is fitted with a clockwork motor.
~ Dimensions ~
The piece is 5 inches (12.5cm) high by 5 inches (12.5cm) long by 2 inches (5cm) wide.
~ Condition ~
The condition of the piece is very good for its age with minor scratches and paint chips. The piece is currently not working, by rotating the key I can feel the spring is sound and the legs jiggle so the gears are fine, it probably just needs a light service to get him back to the gallop.
