2 Primitive Vintage Wood Spinning Top Toys 1 Duncan Yankee Boy 1 Hand Made:
$9.99

We traveled an hour and a half South into central Illinois for a football game this week, and I took the opportunity of going treasure hunting in the cornfields. I found a surprising variety – there’s something for everyone this week!

I bought these two old spinning top toys together, and totally planned to leave them together for this listing, but wasn\'t thinking when I took my photos and shot them separately - please know that this listing is for the two different tops that you see in my photos, although they are not together in one photo! They are both vintage tops made from solid turned wood. One is a commercial top, with the Duncan brand name stamped in red on the top (it measures 3 1/8" tall by 2" widest) and the other one is a hand made top, with a shiny finish on the rounded bottom end, and no varnish on the handle to flat side (It measures 2 1/4" longest and 2 1/2" widest). Both tops are in excellent solid and sturdy condition structurally. The hand made top shows almost not wear, it has an age darkned patina, and that\'s it. The Duncan top shows wear to the finish and wood. It appears as if it was never painted, only stained and varnished, and you can see peeks of what once was a shiny varnish in the lowest spots of the wood. You can tell it was played with by the minor wear - scratches, scrapes, nicks, dings, divots, dark spots and light spots, and there\'s minor wear to the stamped maker\'s mark, but it\'s still very legible. It\'s a nice old lot of 2 for you!

Customer Satisfaction is extremely important to me. If you receive an item and are not satisfied in any way, please contact me before leaving response.

Please ask if you have any questions, or feel free to inform me if you have any information about one of my listings. As with any of my items, if you ever need extra photos, let me know. My white stool, my rug and anything else that you see other than the item discussed are not included in the sale!

I’m happy to combine shipments for you. If you win an item and plan to offer on another, please hold to pay for the first item and request a combined shipping invoice once you’ve won the other item/s. I do ask that there be no more than 7 days from the purchase of the first item – I will invoice after 7 days as I cannot hold the items longer than that. Please know that some items cannot be combined, though, do to size, weight, or safety of the items. Most items set to ship in USPS FLAT RATE boxes; I cannot combine due to size restrictions. Please look at the shipping alternatives in the listings. I only mail USPS and pack in the best manner that we feel safe – I cannot change shipment methods after the close of an sale (i.e. rolling an old map to save money when I have it set to ship flat), especially if I feel the requested method is not safe. Again, I only ship USPS and charge actual cost to ship only. I ship within one business day of receipt of your payment, unless there’s a holiday that closes the post office, or I will notify you otherwise. As I shop for treasures on the weekends, I most often do not ship on Saturday.

Many of my items come from local rural estate sales and sales. They are coming right from the barn or attic to you - dust, cobwebs and all! I do not clean and polish before I sell – they are in the condition found, as you see in my photos, and I leave the patina exactly as it was when I bought the item. I do my best to photo and describe all thoroughly.

Please email me before offerding if you do not use PayPal, and we can discuss possible payment alternatives. Payment is due within 3 business days after close of sale.

With postage rates increasing regularly, I am shipping more and more items Parcel Select. Parcel Select travels by land or rail and the packages do not leave the regional post office until they fill up a bin going in the same direction (so the estimated delivery is truly only an estimate – not exact). The post office estimates 5-7 days, but it can go up higher, sometimes even 3-4 weeks in peak mailing times like the holidays. I always provide a tracking number, so you can see where your item is on any day.

Sales tax will be added for Illinois buyers.

…and thanks so much for looking, I appreciate having you as a customer!
