Vintage 1960s Marx US Presidents Painted 2.75 Lot of 7 Figures Gold Base

Long before action figures took over the toy shelf, Louis Marx & Co. Made a series of tiny hand-painted presidents, Washington through Lyndon Johnson, each standing on his own gold-tone pedestal. These seven came from that 1960s Hong Kong-made series and make a charming little history display for a shelf, desk or classroom.

Collectors of vintage Marx toys and presidential memorabilia have long enjoyed them. The lot includes seven figures: L. Johnson (36th), Dwight Eisenhower (34th), Millard Fillmore (13th), John Tyler (10th), John Quincy Adams (6th), Andrew Johnson (17th) and Benjamin Harrison (23rd). Each is painted hard plastic about 2 3/4 in (60 mm) tall.

The president's name is molded on the front of the base, and his number and years in office are on the back. The underside carries the round Marx mark and Made in Hong Kong. Condition: Light to moderate paint wear and scuffs on the shoes, hands, suit edges and gilded bases, and a small flaked edge on Fillmore's vest.
