Fisher Price Toy Appraisal

Vintage Fisher-Price Little Snoopy Pull Toy

This is a vintage Fisher-Price 'Little Snoopy' pull toy, a classic example of children's toys from the mid-20th century, likely dating from the 1960s to 1970s. The toy is constructed primarily from lithographed tin for the body, depicting the head and body of a dog with realistic brown, black, and cream-colored fur patterns. The dog features a brown ear, expressive eyes, and a black snout, contributing to its charming and playful appearance. It is mounted on four vibrant red plastic wheels, typical of the era, which allow it to be pulled along. A red braided string, showing some fraying at the end, is attached to the front of the toy for this purpose. A black metal rod with a bright green plastic ball handle is inserted into the top-rear of the dog's body, serving as a push-along handle or a vertical accent. The dog's body prominently features a yellow oval sticker or decal with the words 'FISHER PRICE LITTLE SNOOPY' in blue text, confirming its identity and manufacturer. The lithograph shows some minor wear and scratches consistent with age and play, particularly on the edges and raised areas, but the colors remain largely vibrant. No significant damage like dents or cracks are immediately visible, indicating a relatively well-preserved condition for a toy of its age. The overall craftsmanship reflects the durable and child-friendly design philosophy of Fisher-Price toys from this period.
