Greetings & best wishes from Mr. Pleas e have confidence in my 100% honest descriptions and please read the following carefully. This is what I BELIEVE to be, either an Original, or a Reproduction of a “Hit & Miss” Type Engine. I know pretty much NOTHING about these things, other than the fact that this piece appears to be a very nicely detailed and machined miniature engine. The wood base measures approx. 10.75″ long by 3.5″ wide. The flywheels measure approx. 4 in diameter and the entire thing weights approx. I have no idea if it is complete or if it operates, but the flywheels turn very nicely, turning all the gears and other pieces. There are no parts included that are not shown in the photos. This item was obtained in a massive estate collection of toy trains & model airplanes. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PHOTOS ARE AN INTEGRAL and a VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THIS LISTING. What you see is what you get. I’m sorry if this poses an inconvenience for you, but there are way too many parcels “disappearing” from doorsteps these days, so better safe than sorry. This is California law! Along these lines, please feel free to forward any suggestions as to how I can do better. I would very much appreciate it and I’ll happily do the same for you.
