Although marked Foreign, it’s no doubt that this lithographed tin speedboat was made in prewar Japan. The box graphics and the lithography are classic Japanese. The toy is 8″ long and features a working clockwork motor. There is wear on the lithography as seen in the photos. There is a British Flag on the stern of the boat, so this was probably made for that market. There is a logo on the box, but I’m not familiar with it.
