Question for T2x, Brownie, any of the Icons

[cosmic12]

Doe's anybody remember any salesmen carrying these around with them?

[cosmic12]

This was given to me as a gift. Its very cool. The person told me it was an old sales prop for Mec reps back in the day. Is that true? What is it worth? Does anyone out there collect this sort of thing?

Sorry, don't want to sell it I just wanted some info. I collect old tin litho boats and it kinda goes with them. Besides it was a gift.

[Bobcat]

It is pretty neat

[Ratickle]

Is it metal or plastic?

[cosmic12]

Is it metal or plastic?

Both, But mostly plastic, about 6" tall on the orig stand.

There have been various toy OB's and boats that Mercury gave out over the years. If that is an original piece, and I don't know that it is ....or isn't, it is worth whatever someone will pay for it.

All I really wanted was to know if anyone had seen one before. I won't part with it, its a gift.
