BARRY GOLDWATER
Republican Nominee for President in 1964
INDIVIDUALLY NUMBERED, HAND CAST, & HAND PAINTED
This is a hand cast, hand painted RECAST figurine of Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater originally made by the Marx Toy Company to match its President figures of the 1950s and 60s. It is 60mm tall (about 2 3/4 inches), weighs about an ounce, is cast from a resin plastic, and is painted with enamel paint. Each figure is individually and sequentially numbered.
As collectors know, during the run of their Presidential figure series, Marx made several prototype figurines of candidates in the event that they actually won the Presidency. These figures include Adlai Stevenson, Barry Goldwater, and Hubert Humphrey. Although they were never sold directly to the general public, many have found their way into the collector marketplace. The Humphrey figure appears on eBay weekly and unpainted figures of Stevenson and Goldwater (in two poses) also show up on occasion. This figurine is a painted RECAST of the rarer (and less visually accurate) Goldwater pose.
Elsewhere in this store you'll find every other major party presidential nominee since 1944 as well as the seven presidents that Marx never made, a set of Supreme Court figurines, and a series of Famous American figurines.
