Hobo The Accordion Player is a battery-operated tin toy made by Alps (Alps Shoji) of Japan, distributed by Cragstan in the United States during the late 1950s to early 1960s. The toy features a hobo clown figure playing an accordion with a small musical chimp, and is battery powered with moving action and sound. This example includes its original box, which is a significant value-adding factor for vintage tin toy collectors.
