Vintage Japanese Tin Toy Funnel- Girl and Boy with Flower Border

This 1950's vintage Japanese tin toy funnel is a litho variation of one in my collection that I have never seen before.

A boy wearing a sailboat print shirt is on the right while a girl on the left pours water into a bottle using a funnel. A small toy truck and some other objects are between the children.

The main difference between this funnel and the more common one is the morning glory border arched over the children.

Condition is very good with rich, deep colors and no real play wear on the inside of the funnel. The back has darkened with age and has light rust around the edge under the rim.

3.75 inches (9.5 cm) across
