We have for you a ca. 1950’s tin, windup, lithographed “Rollover Cat” in black manufactured by Louis Marx & Company of New York City, New York.
This classic kitty character windup is a “Rollover Cat” mechanical windup black cat. The working clockwork mechanism performs when wound by going forward chasing his wooden red ball. The cat then veers off and begins to flip over with the help of his tail. We believe the windup key is a replacement as are both ears. UNQUOTE... i DO NOT KNOW IF OUR CAT VEERS FORWARD BUT HIS TAIL FLIPS OVER....
