Product description
Tin toy tugboat “Neptune”, produced in Japan during the 1960s. Made of lithographed metal with vibrant printed details and characteristic mid-century mechanical design, it features the name “Neptune” displayed along the hull.
The toy retains its original paint and surface finish with light wear consistent with age. Designed to operate with a small flashlight mechanism, though functionality has not been tested.
A well-preserved example of 1960s Japanese tin toy craftsmanship, reflecting the playful precision and graphic appeal of the postwar design era.
