Summary
A baby's wooden and plastic pull-string toy man, manufactured by Fischerform (circa 1982). The man has a yellow painted head with black painted facial features. He is wearing a turned yellow wooden hat. He has a red plastic moulded body with three moulded buttons on the front. He has blue wooden cylindrical arms and legs protrude from a slit in the sides and bottom of the body. Through the man is a string, attached to the end of which is a yellow oval wooden ball. When the string is pulled, the arms and legs move up and down. There is also a red plastic flower shaped clip called a 'Daisy Fastener'. The centre of the 'flower' is decorated with a circle filled with embossed dots and the fishcherform fish symbol. There is also a colour printed leaflet for the Fischerform pull-string man which they call a Jumping Jack toy for children from 4 months. On the front of the leaflet is a colour photograph of a baby reaching up to the jumping jack toy. Total number of items is 3.
