This is a small children’s toy from Germany that my grandfather brought with him when his family emigrated from Mülheim an der Ruhr, back in the early 1900’s. I was allowed to play with this on Sundays in their living room, under their watchful eye as a child. It is one of my treasured possessions.
What a marvellous toy. I bet you had as much fun playing with it as a child as you treasure it now. Happy weekend
So sweet!! I love family treasures. I remember my grandmother had special things which we were allowed to play with. We had our own shelf at her house. You are lucky to have inherited this…I don’t know what happened to our playthings. Cherish it!!
No wonder this is your treasured possessions – this is really a clenodium – how nice that you still have it!
Have a great weekend and btw: yea, Tor and I and our wife’s have a great time 🙂
Oh, that’s DARLING!!! What a treasure!!!
That’s cute and reminds me of a little farm my grandpa had ! My grandpa’s dad’s brother immigrated in 1830 to the States and after quite some adventures settled finally down in Wisconsin. My aunt (my mother’s sister) married an american in 1951 from Madison Wisconsin and they discovered later that they were cousins ! Isn’t that a funny story ?
It’s precious! What a treasure to have!
