The woman has a large hat, shawl, and dainty feet that rest on the decorated car base. Flywheel drive causes the wheels to turn and the man to push the cart along. Excellent condition woman, mechanism intact. Marked Lehmann. Comments: Lehmann''s EPL model 290, made only from 1889 to 1896, inspired by the International Exposition in Paris.
