Here is an Unusual and rare Vintage 1960’s Race Car Driver #1 Bobblehead or Nodder that looks in NEAR MINT CONDITION…. You won’t find a nicer one. All the colors are sensational…. Very bright and clear. There is no Sun Fade or noticeable damage that I can see! There are no big chips on the bottom of the fragile head… Most nodders have them around the bottom edge of their head…. (look at my pictures and see for yourself)! It is made of paper mache material, which is very fragile…. Very few survived , or are this nice looking. This rare Bobblehead was made in Japan for “WALLFRIN INDUSTIRES” of Brooklyn N. In the early 1960’s, and was founded by MEL HARBER…. The car measures about 5 1/4″ long X 3 1/4″ wide, total height is about 6 high. It has been said…. That the car he is racing is suppose to be a 1957 FORD T-Bird…. (It looks more like a 1960’s Mopar type car to me). NOTE: If you are NOT 100% SURE, or SATISFIED with my description or pictures to own this 58 some year old item…. Thanks for your understanding! The item “RARE-VINTAGE 1960’s WALLFRIN RACE CAR DRIVER #1 BOBBLEHEAD, NODDER NEAR MINT” is in sale since Thursday, September 26, 2019. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Pinbacks, Bobbles, Lunchboxes\Bobbleheads, Nodders\Vintage (Pre-1970)”. The seller is “wheelinneil” and is located in Mentor, Ohio.
