Three hand made toy guns


Thought to be from the 1950's with metallic paint.  Made for children to play with.


Hand carved folk art jigger toy


Just over 11 inches tall




Folk art cigar box, hand made baseball players


Originating from the American Northwest ( Seattle / Spokane ) area.  Each player is individually cut out of cigar boxes and colored/drawn.  There are 25 in total between 4 to 6 inches in height.  The crude pennant found with them says Spokane.  Possibly patterned off of old baseball cards from the late 1800's to early 1900's given the early uniforms.







Early 20th C folk art carved and painted woman


Guessing 1920's to 1930's in age.  11 inches tall.

Wooden, painted toy gun

5.5 by 4 inches - not sure if hand made.  Has an unusual, square shaped chamber and what appears to be a missing trigger system.  A slit near the front for a rubber band?




Hand made folk art toy pistol

9 nine inches long and painted.  Has a trigger that can be cocked and the pulled that makes a clicking sound.



Hand carved folk art toy pistol

4.5 by 3.5 inches, painted with hand carved attached pistol grips.
