I was visiting my neighbor last evening and he was waxing nostalgic. Sometime back in the late 1940's or early 1950's he and his wife put together this collection of wind-up plastic toy animal musicians. I decided the way he placed them so fondly on the coffee table deserved a photograph. So, strike up the band! They are fun to watch; feet, arms and heads all move ... and not in unison by a long shot!
My friends Kim at Seattle Daily Photo and Ming at Bangor Daily Photo are also posting iPhone Wednesday photos today. Be sure to stop by and say hi.

Well, I'm glad you posted this. I have a motley crew of nostalgic items from my chidlhood I was going to make a little photo of...need to think if I can tie them in to Belgrade...I think I think I have an idea; stay tuned.
Sweet and very cute!
You mean to tell me you didn't make a MOVIE? LOL. That's a real kick, Chuck.
Where is the video!!!
I love seeing what other people collect! These still work? I chuckled when you said they all moved, but not in unison. I photographed a ballet class of 3-4 year olds yesterday. Same thing! :)

That is a cute setup! I see a lot of these wind up toys a lot but never that many different pieces together.
Your neighbor has an impressive collection there.
Very good! Do they take requests? Lol!
