| The picture shows a view of all (4) Different Old Tin & Wood Miniature Toy Harmonica Charms in this lot. These are not dated but all of them are old. These miniature harmonicas and others like them were offered and available in many ways. They were used as prizes in old gum ball machines, used as premiums, used in old arcade game machine, sold as novelties in five & dime stores and souvenir shops, used as carnival prizes, sold on key chains, and many other ways. The bottom left one pictured does not work well and may need the reeds adjusted. The other three work well. The two on the left have four sections and the two on the right have two. They are each made of tin and wood. The Hohner one has 1/2 of its original plastic case box. Each of these have a metal charm loop to hang it on a necklace, keychain, charm bracelet, etc.. From left to right they are marked on the two sides as follows: HOHNER LITTLE LADY - MADE IN GERMANY QUEEN JAPAN MEDAL JAPAN QUEEN JAPAN To judge the sizes the largest of the miniature harmonicas here measures about 1-1/2'' wide. These appear to vary from fair to excellent condition as pictured. |
