Description
THERE ARE MANY MORE ENLARGEABLE PHOTOS FOLLOWING THE DESCRIPTION BELOW.Red Raven Magic Mirror records are a charming vintage children's toy from the 1950s where a reflector shaped like a circus tent is placed on the spindle on top of the record. When the record spins, its label is reflected in the mirrored reflector and makes a moving picture. Even though it is simple, for some reason in this high-tech age, it is fascinating to watch.
This auction is for over a couple dozen Red Raven Magic Mirror records (many in opaque plastic, half a dozen in transparent plastic, and two of the smaller, metal-rimmed records), two of the reflectors and the faux record player carrying case.
One of the reflectors is in excellent condition; the other is in fair condition with some dark spots in the mirroring, but it still reflects the moving image very nicely.
The box is worn, with some tape having been placed where the handle has pulled away from the box. The tape looks removeable if you would want to do a better repair job. The box still has the insert you can remove and set up differently in the box to make it really look like a record player.
I have never played any of the records because I needed a new needle. I put them on the record player with the reflector to watch the moving pictures, but never put a needle to the records.
The following list shows which records and if there is more than one copy of each. These are all used children's records, but there are many I can't see any significant scratches, but there are also many I can see scratches to some degree. I will note any label damage.
M-1 Tootles the Tug, M-2 The Little Red Engine (3 copies--2 opaque and 1 sheer)
M-3 Old MacDonald Had a Farm, M-4 Little White Duck (3 copies; a couple age spots on label of opaque plastic, the two sheer plastic copies have great labels)
M-7 Sidewalks of New York, M-8 Bicycle Built For Two
M-9 Me and My Teddy Bear, M10 The Teddy Bears' Picnic (2 copies; rippled labels)
M-11 On the Merry-Go-Round, M-12 Parade of the Wooden Soldiers (3 copies--2 opaque copies; one Wooden Soldier label has many brown age marks and 1 sheer copy with beautiful labels)
M-13 Mary Had a Little Lamb, M-14 Three Blind Mice
M-17 Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, M-18 Frosty the Snowman (2 copies; one label has ink marks on it on one record)
M-19 Santa Claus is Coming to Town (Label Damage) M-20 Suzy Snowflake (perfect labels: the M-19 label is completely off the record, but still perfect and can be glued back on)
OM-21 Farmer in the Dell, OM-22 Hickory, Dickory, Dock
OM-23 I'm a Little Teapot, OM-24 Hey, Diddle, Diddle (some small paper loss on non-movie part of label)
OM-25 Peter Cottontail, OM-26 Easter Chick
OM-27 My Choc'late Rabbit, OM-28 Easter Bunny (2 copies)
M-29 The Whistler and His Dog, M-30 Get Along, Old Pard
M-31 Syncopated Clock M-32 Circus Days (2 copies-1 opaque and 1 sheer)
M-33 Raggedy Ann, M-34 Raggedy Andy (2 copies-1 opaque with torn label and cracked record; 1 sheer plastic in excellent condition with great labels)
M-35 The Wobblin' Goblin, M-36 Toy Town Parade (label has age spotting and is loose on the M-35 side)
SM-37 That Doggie in the Window, S-38 Three Little Fishes (transparent plastic)
The small wire-rimmed records are M1-M2 and M3-M4. The M1-M2 record is slighly curved and might be able to be played; the M3-M4 is really rippled and I doubt could be played.
