Black Tin Cat On Wheels Vintage Japanese Wind-Up Toy woman in profile on rock 1 1/4" across at openingI really love this old tin cat on wheels toy, which is not just a great object, but a super fun one: pull down on the tail to wind it up (this requires holding the body with the other hand as the pressure pressure builds), then release and off it goes rolling, fast!
