Marx George The Drummer Boy
George The Drummer Boy by Louis Marx. Marx was the biggest maker of toys in the 1950s and 60s. They made cheap lithographed tin toys. This is a great example of Marx’s work.
George beats the drum, claps the symbols and his eyes move. Not much action by todays standards, but kids back then had imaginations.
From looking on eBay there are two versions of George The Drummer Boy. The one shown here, and a simpler version with a smaller drum, no cymbals, and eyes that don’t roll. the simple version has George hitting the top of a small drum, rather than the side of a big drum.
