Antique Dagwood the Driver Comic Character Tin Wind Up Car

Dagwood the Driver This toy windup car was Created from the comic strip “Blondie” by Chic Young. One of the longest, most eccentric cars Marx produced, this multicolored Dagwood car depicts many of the characters from the comic strip: Blondie & Baby Dumpling appear on the hood. Cookie & Mr. Dithers appear on the sides of the hood. Daisy the Dog & her puppies appear on the trunk. Dagwood is driving the car. A learners permit is on the left side of the windshield and a horn is on the right side. The front wheels are much smaller than the rear wheels and they spin completely around allowing for the crazy driving action. The Marx logo is on the right side of the hood. On the left side is “Copr. 1930, 1934, 1935. By King Features Syndicate, Inc.” Dagwood should be wearing a hat and that we do not have with this toy. The windup mechanism is in good working condition. Dagwood the Driver Tin Wind Up Car measures: 6 1/2″ tall x 8″ long x 3 3/4″ wide at wheels.
