SHE'S BA-ACK!
GIRL SKIPPING ROPE


PATENTED:  MAY 20, 1890
J & E STEPHENS & JAMES H. BOWER
96% ORIGINAL PAINT
COMES WITH ORIGINAL KEY

IN MANUFACTURING THIS TOY, THE AIM HAS BEEN TO PRODUCE A PROLONGED OR CONTINUOUS PERFORMANCE OF ITS AMUSING FEATURES WITHOUT THE AID OF AN EXPENSIVE AND DELICATE CLOCKWORK MECHANISM.  THIS HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED BY INVENTING A SIMPLE STRONG DURABLE MOTOR.  THE SIMULATION OF SKIPPING ROPE IS PERFECT.  THE BODY, HEAD, FEET, AND ROPE ALL MOVE IN UNISON, BUT EACH PART PERFORMS INDEPENDENTLY IN ITS OWN APPROPRIATE MANNER.

YARN TASSEL FROM EAR IS MISSING (PROBABLY DISINTEGRATED OVER THE YEARS)

ALL-ORIGINAL PARTS & PAINT

NEVER BEEN REPAIRED

THE ROPE IS MADE OUT OF BRONZE

OF THE ~40 KNOWN GSR'S IN EXISTENCE (there could be sleepers), THIS BANK IS IN THE TOP 16% IN THE WORLD.
