A collectors reproduction toy
This wonderful little toy was invented in 1891 by an English gentleman. Early in the 1900's toy companies in
the U.S. and worldwide began making steam-powered tin boats based on his design. The tooling for our
steam boat originated in Japan and after WWII was relocated to India, where they have been made since.
