Vintage Cowgirl Tin Clicker Cricket from the 1950s, still in its original packaging. This item is highly sought after and rare to find in such great condition. The clicker works perfectly, but be warned - if you give it to your kids, they may keep you on your toes with their endless clicking! There is some light corrosion on the back of the tin.
Historical Context:
Post World War II, there was an influx of dime-store collectibles produced in Japan and imported as part of General Douglas MacArthur's rebuilding efforts. These collectibles played a key role in boosting the economy, particularly during the Korean War, which created a greater demand for goods.
