San Tin Aircraft Carrier Windup Toy. This sought after San or Marusan aircraft carrier was branded as The Coral Sea. Kosuge, Japan is co-branded on the stern deck. Our version is a very early and large version, not often seen. It comes with a windup mechanism and is superior, in our opinion, to the battery version that is prone to breakage. Our toy is working and takes just a few winds to power for close to a minute. The spring is strong and it works very well. Condition is outstanding, and has just a few abrasions on the hull. Guns are still there, and often break off due to their delicate construction. All planes are present as is the crane/gantry next to the bridge. We believe that the planes are impressionistic and meant to be modeled after postwar propeller planes. This is a superior example of the post World War 2 Japanese rendition of the historic Coral Sea, named after the historic naval battle of the Coral Sea.
