Nice. The little ship looks like the playing piece from a monopoly board game. Maybe the dog or boot is still there :-)

The ship could also be a Cracker Jack prize, back when they used to put real prizes in the boxes.

Great finds! Don't recall a ship as a playing piece for monopoly?

I agree with Trezurehunter on this one, Cracker Jacks prize. I searched my toy books with special attention to Tootsietoy, Gray Iron, Arcade, Manoil, Barclay, and Lincoln Logs, all lead toymakers who made ships. Yours was not among their lineups. Now ask yourself, would you want your kids eating Cracker Jacks that had been rattling around inside of a box with a lead toy? Yummy....Sub 8-)
