What am I bid for this charming hummingbird? Clockwork toy failed to set pulses racing at Lincolnshire auction

 


An unusual tin plate clockwork humming bird, made in West Germany, failed to live up to expectations when it went under the hammer at John Taylors Auctions in Louth, Lincolnshire. The pre-sale guide price was £40-£50, but, in the event, the wind-up toy only fetched £25.
