The Old Nurse.
This mechanical toy is made to imitate an old negro nurse with a child. Her motions are as natural as life. She holds the child in her hands and when the mechanism is started, (by being wound) she leans backward and forward tossing the child up and down in a most surprising manner. This is a very pleasing toy for children and is very popular.
Price, $2.50.
Fing Wing,
A MELICAN MAN.
This image, with its shaven head, long queue and quaint looking dress, gives a striking and life-like picture of a Chinese Laundryman. When at work, he bends over the tub, and rubs the garment which he holds in his hands with a naturalness so perfect he might easily be mistaken for a real Celestial.
Price, $2.50.
Ah-Sin.
“THE HEATHEN CHINESE.”
This piece is similar to the Laundryman represented on the opposite page. It shows Ah-Sin with a smoothing iron, putting the polish upon a gentleman’s linen. The mechanism of these novelties is so perfectly made, that only the greatest abuse can put them out of order.
Price, $2.50.
