The Vintage Marx Tin Litho Wind Up Doughboy Tank from the 1930s is a rare and collectible toy that showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail of that era.

With its silver finish and iconic design, this vintage toy is sure to be a prized addition to any collection of vintage and antique toys. Please be mindful to not overwind, this is a very old toy and meant for collectors. As you can see from the video it works. Refunds for overwinding will not be given. There is something wrong with the connection to the friction engine. The start/stop switch doesn't work correctly. When wound and on the ground and in the stop position it doesn't move, move the switch to go and it doesn't move. Pick it up and it releases all the energy which should take 20 seconds, in 3. If it functioned as it should I would charge $225, in this state I am only asking $200. Since most collectors will probably only display these, I feel this is fair. If you feel differently make me a reasonable offer. In the video you can see that it wanted to let loose, but couldn't until I let go, and it actually ran as expected, not super-fast for 3 seconds.
