Gioca CLIMBING PANDA vintage Italian wind-up toy on a red ladder. Comes in original box with lovely graphics. Dated 1979. Made in Hong Kong.

Mechanism works well (may be too well as the panda does not always drop back down when it gets to the double rung and still tried to climb!). Measures 16cm high.

Packaging reads "Gioca L.2000 720 1495 00" on top (Italian for "Play") and also in Italian on the back is "Non si consiglia a bambini inferiori a 3 anni" (not recommended for children under 3 years old). Underneath this is written "A Norma Art. 1 DM. 31/7/1979" and "Made In Hong Kong No.2002".

Signs of age to toy and box. See photos for more details.
