An early and very sculptural primitive horse pull toy dates to the mid-19th century. Probably carved by a very talented amateur (father for child, possibly), it is mounted on a green painted platform with iron wheels. The horse is 10 1/4' tall (overall height with platform is 11 7/8' and from nose to rump, the horse is about 10 1/2'; his bristle tail adds another 2'. Original surface, including the painted platform. The mane is gone (remnants of how it was mounted and a few tiny nails that held it in place), as are most of his ears, but otherwise it is in very fine condition with no splits or cracks, etc. This one just oozes body motion!
