Frowning Face Cap Toy
By Ives, Blakeslee Company Late 1880's - 4 3/4" Tall Gertrude Hegarty Collection. This rattle-shaped exploding cap novelty device is extremely rare and important. Pull the nose towards you and place your cap inside. When you pull the string at the bottom the nose returns to explode the cap. Simultaneously, the figure's frown turns to a grinning smile
