Original Maerklin Toy Motor. Gerbruder Maerklin: Goppingen, Germany
Maerklin originated as a maker of doll sized tinplate kitchenware. When his sons took over the business in 1888, the firm name was changed to Gebruder Maerklin. The company branched out to a variety of enameled tinplate boats, carousels, and aeronautical toys. They were unsurpassed in production of clockwork, steam, and electric trains. The company introduced the first standardized tinplate tracks in 1891. Maerklin switched to plastic train sets in the late 1950s. This wonderful example still retains its original finish and striping. This item is in overall excellent condition, and it runs on 110v DC. The original wooden base is still attached.
