Description
PLEASE SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM OF THE LISTING. THE LAST PHOTO IS A YOUTUBE LINK WHERE YOU CAN WATCH A SHORT MOVIE OF THIS WONDERFUL MONKEY IN ACTION!!!  The time lapse is pretty lame, but you get the idea of the movements activated by the knobs & levers at rear of the base. You are bidding on a rare* mechanical monkey that will surely add tons of crowd pleasing interaction on a street organ, monkey organ, or just about any music making machine.  He can be a fun addition to your musical collection or even start you out on a profitable "hobby" of organ grinding at parties, shows, & street fairs. *-have not seen a similar mechanical monkey for sale over past 3 years.  Probably  Dutch,  this cute little  guy has 9 movements that are operated by the levers toward the back of the base.  He can: wink eye, wiggle ears,  moves eye brows, mouth opens, upper lip , tongue sticks out, right hand taps forehead (you're crazy), left hand tips hat, & unfortunately sometimes he can pee on a real nasty person who gets too close.   Whether it's a Prinsen 32 key organ, a 20 note Pell Busker organ, or even a Schmider street organ, this little fellow will steal the show.  In the event you fall in love with him & do not have an organ yet, check out my other ebay auctions for a few possibilities.  He comes from a non-smoking home & has given his preference to stay smoke free.  Approx.  30" H 30" L  16" W.  Wt: approx 28 lbs. No batteries, no electronic parts--everything is controlled by moving levers in back of base & all movements work fine.  The string is undone on lever that moves upper lip--easy fix.   Note:  the "pee" part has never been tested--never had a nasty person out front.  If you live near Sarasota, feel free to come check him out in person or ask for more photos to highlight the area you seek more detail.   We've had a few choice names for him but the buyer will not be required to   keep the same name we gave him, though we will miss his input to the discussions when guests are present.  Any organs or other instruments partially appearing in photos are NOT part of this auction. Buyer pays shipping, plus a $10. packing fee (totally encased in bubble wrap).  please ask questions before bidding. NOTE:  the  shipping  costs listed in the description above may NOT be totally accurate for your area & also depends on residence or business address.  Monkey will be shipped  from local auth. Fed Ex shipper;  34234.  Check website for accurate shipping costs.      You might qualify for a  rebate on this purchase -- check out the Microsft Live Search rebate offer here:http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/topic_view.php?catid=18&threadid=838081&start=0 Note:  Unable to ship  12/9/08 thru 1/2/09.  Please email if you have any questions.   Thanks
