Kohner Toy List and Prices

Can anybody help me put together a list of Kohner toys from the 1920s and 30s?

For a history of the Kohner Brothers Toy Company, go here.

Here are some photos from my small Kohner pulltoy collection.

Shown are the Clown, Helicopter, Cowboy, and Tricycle Tom . Kohner wood toys are known for their nice, stained wood finish.

Tricycle Tom is the most commonly seen pulltoy. Made between 1947 and 1955.

 

This cowboy pulltoy was made by Kohner is about 1947. It is marked as having a Czechoslovakian finish. The horse and cowboy move back and forth as the toy is pulled.

The Kohner Clown pulltoy is one of my favorites. As the toy is pulled, the clown's arms swing back and forth, ringing the bell with the green ball at the end of strings. CA 1947
