Robert’s Old Tin Rattle & Horn Combo tin can just old fold lines

just old fold lines

from the wavy lines detailing feathers to those rather crudely painted talons to the orange branch and green swath below

even better when born as the solution to a problem

The box also shows lots of wear

and so it's pretty amazing that he's still squeaking after all these years

Robert’s Old Tin Rattle & Horn Combo tin can just old fold linesI've seen just a couple other rattles like this over time (two, exactly), so there must have been someone who made them, but this is the first I've seen with a wooden mouthpiece on at the end of the handle, making me realize it's a horn as well as a rattle. )And, indeed, it produces a loud honk like a kazoo! Two marbles inside the tin body give it the rattle a nice tone too. Once it was the property of a Robert, who wrote his name on the mouthpiece.
