Whomever the buyer was here got a terrific bargain snatching up this scarce tin German noisemaker for $49.99! The Germans didn't allocate much metal to such frivolities as exported noisemakers as the 1930s dawned due to the onerous conditions of the Versailles Treaty. In 1933, with the advent of National Socialism on the national political scene, such allocations became almost unheard of, accounting for the true rarity for tin noisemakers made in Germany from this time period on the market today.
