Vintage Japanese Flipping Spinning Acrobats shops Three Wooden Hand Painted Acrobats

A very nice old toy, three wooden acrobats, flipping when you turn the knob. They have painted faces and clothes, their arms and legs are attached with thin pieces of wood. The bodies are hollow so the top of the legs fit inside. It is made entirely of wood, on the bottom is a faint stamp, with possible Japanese letters. The small pegs in the arms and legs are not glued, it can come loose and be put back. The paint looks a little brighter in shops the photo, it would make a nice piece to sit on your desk.

This piece is in good condition, the toe of one of the "shoes" has broken off. It stands 5 inches tall, the base is 2 x 6 3/4 inches.
