Vintage Marx THE BIG PARADE wind up tin litho 24 long good shape works good

Vintage Marx The Big Parade was one of four toys made by Marx that were known as "Traffic Simulating Toys". It's a wind-up, spring driven mechanical tin litho toy, built in appreciation of the soldiers who fought and died in WWI.

This example is in good condition and probably one of few that actually still works. There is a Red Cross Ambulance / Truck and six two-dimensional soldiers, marching and on horseback pulling a cannon. It has a built in wind up on top of one of the buildings with an on/ off switch. THE BIG PARADE graphics have faded.

I pack very well, inside and out. Please check my other auctions for more vintage models, planes, trains and many other items.
