Vintage Jensen Toy Steam Engine Style # 5 On Original Wooden Board WithBrass Plate
A Vintage'Jensen' Toy Steam Engine'Style No. 5' on the Original wooden base with a'Brass Label and'UL' sticker. The engine looks to be complete and is in very good cond, but does show some light scratching and some light tarnishing to some of the metal parts. The smokestack has some thin metal tape painted black around the bottom where it goes on behind the tank. The wooden base has a small crack in front of the water tank and is very slightly warped. The Brass plate on the base reads'Jensen Mfg. 115 Volts AC or DC 450 Watts 4 Amps Style No. There is also a red and yellow'Underwriters Laboratories' sticker beside the plate.
I plugged the piece in for a few seconds and the tank and the metal sides that holds the tank started to get warm (I did not put any water in the tank to try to make steam). The valves and everything seem to work fine, but again it is untested for making steam. The wooden base measures approx.
11 1/2" L x 9 1/2" W and the piece weighs 6 lbs. This is a very neat Vintage'Jensen' or'Toy Steam Engine' collectible (see pictures).
