A form of an early folk art toy I am not familiar with. It has the look and feel of a squeak toy, but in this case the bird is wired to pick his head up...essentially a very early example of the "pecking chicken" toy. Paper base is covered with a primitive printed wallpaper of the time. Any help identifying would be great! This was a manufactured object (while OLD) and likely other than embellishments, not one of a kind.
Antique Toy Bird with articulated movement, highly worn. Early 19th Century
Collection Dull Tool Dim Bulb
