The cowboys have been our eyes to the ways of the American wild west since the 1920s. They rode horses; they sang songs. Their horses did tricks; their guns were shiny and on the right side of the law. Cowboys were our heroes whether they wore black as Hopalong Cassidy did or white as the Lone Ranger did. And there shall always be a place in our heart for them.

The final step is a hand rub with dark colored beeswax giving it the final finish and feel. In the manner of their antique predecessors, our balance toys are true originals.
