PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS LARGE FRAGILE 3 FOOT X 2 FOOT ITEM CANNOT BE SHIPPED AND IS OFFERED FOR PICK UP ONLY. DELIVERY WITHIN 30 MILES FROM ZIPCODE 18055 IS ALSO AN OPTION FOR AN ADDITIONAL $125 CHARGE. FOR THE HARD CORE STEIFF COLLECTOR! HERE IS A SHOWPIECE!THIS IS A VERY RARE DOLLHOUSE STORE DISPLAY FROM FAO SCHWARZ IN NEW YORK CITY AND WAS PURCHASED BY A SUCCESSFUL ATTORNEY FOR HIS 2 DAUGHTERS SOMETIME IN THE 1940S OR 50\'s. I FOUND IT STILL ON DISPLAY IN THE BASEMENT OF THE ALLENTOWN ROW HOME WHERE IT SAT ALL THESE YEARS. THE HOUSE ITSELF IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.IT STILL HAS A PARTIAL WATER STYLE GOLD DECAL FROM THE FAO STORE UNDER THE ROOF BUT ITS DRY AND PEELING OFF.IT HAS WORKING DOORS, ATTIC WINDOW DOORS, A METAL LAMP HANGING ON ONE SIDE,AND THE ROOF LIFTS OFF TO REVEAL THE INSIDE WHICH HAS FURNISHINGS THAT I BELIEVE WERE MADE BY STROMBECKER FOR THIS SET. ALL OF THE FURNITURE IS MADE OF WOOD! EVEN THE FLOOR AND TABLE LAMPS WHCH RESEMBLE RENWAL ITEMS BUT ARE ACTUALLY WOOD NOT PLASTIC! HOW COOL! THERE IS SOME WASH DRYING ON THE CLOTHESLINE WITH VINTAGE TOY CLOTHESPINS,,I DONT KNOW IF THAT IS ORIGINAL TO THIS SET BUT I DO BELIEVE THAT THE CLOTHESLINE IS ORIGINAL TO THE SET.THERE IS AN OUTHOUSE WITH WORKING DOOR. THERE IS A Christmas WREATH HANGING ON THE WINDOW,I DONT KNOW IF THIS WAS ADDED OR ORIGINAL? THE PLASTIC FLOWERS ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE HOUSE MIGHT NOT BE ORIGINAL? THEY COME LOOSE FROM LITTLE HOLES WHCH HAVE SOME GLUE RESIDUE IN THEM AND THIS IS HOW I FOUND IT. THE WATER WELL WITH METAL BUCKET IS ORIGINAL AND IS PART OF THIS SET AND IS COMPLETE. I FOUND THIS WITH THE BRANCH PUTZ FENCE(which has a working gate!) SO I AM INCLUDING THE FENCE ALONG WITH THE HOUSE. IT LOOKS FANTASTIC AND IS THE CORRECT SCALE BUT I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS ORIGINAL TO THIS HOUSE, IT IS OLD THOUGH AND IS NOT PERMANENTLY ATTACHED TO THE BASE SO YOU CAN CHOSE WHETHER OR NOT TO DISPLAY IT AROUND THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE.I PICTURED THE HOUSE BOTH WITH AND WITHOUT THE FENCING. I FOUND MICKI AND MECKI STILL LIVING IN THE HOUSE SO THEY ARE INCLUDED BUT THEY HAVENT HAD A BATH IN 60 YEARS SO THEY NEED A CLEANING. BOTH ARE APPROX 4\" AND MADE OF RUBBER WITH UNBROKEN WIRE LIMBS WHICH HOLD A POSE. THIS MICKI MECKI PLAYOUSE DOLLHOUSE IS SO RARE AND HARD TO FIND,I HAVE ONLY SEEN ONE OTHER EVER OFFERED FOR SALE AT A HIGH END sale HOUSE AND MINE IS IN MUCH NICER CONDITION WITH MORE ACCESSORIES.THIS ITEM MUST BE PICKED UP IN ZIPCODE 18055.
