Cased Vintage Metal Scratch Built/Folk Art Steam Train On Tracks, c1960

  
Model of a steam train, c1960. This is a lovely piece of folk art that would have taken many hours to construct. The train is solid and heavy, made from hand painted metal with brass fittings and even the wheels function. It sits on a wooden plinth which includes a track and buffers at each end. This is topped with a Perspex case. It displays really well and is a great piece of Railwayana. Overall condition looks to be very good.

Size: Case 42cm wide x 17cm tall x 11cm deep; train 23cm wide x 11cm tall x 6cm deep. About me: I have been a passionate collector of antiques and collectables for over 30 years. My tastes are diverse and range from fine antique furniture, African, Indian and Asian ethnographic antiques and tribal art, to vintage slot machines - the more unusual and curious the better! I have travelled extensively throughout Africa, Asia, India, North America and much of my collection has been sourced in the Country of origin.

After many years of collecting I decided to start to sell and have established'Curious Antiques' which specialises in a range of fine and more unusual antiques. These include fine furniture, religious items, militaria, amusement machines and one of the Countries best collections of African, Chinese, Eastern and Indian tribal and ethnographic antiques. I value your custom and will do all I can to keep you happy and satisfied.
