Small toy airplane

[DeepBeeps]

Found at a 1916 house about 6-7 inches deep. Any ideas on what it is? I cant find anything on it. Maybe a game piece? Thanks for any info. HH

Nice find! I think it's a Cracker Jack Toy. I found the same one here minus one wing and that's what I figured it was as we find all kinds of Cracker Jack toys here in the picnic groves.

Good call!

Nice airplane. I didn't know that Cracker Jack's made several items that were from the old monoply game. I recognize the hat, battleship, dog, iron and shoe from a game I still have from the 50's. I wonder if Cracker Jack didn't have any problem with Parker Brother's for a trademark infringement.
