STAR illustrated harmonica

This STAR illustrated harmonica represents a remarkable survivor from the 1950s, preserved in new condition with its original box.
As a Chinese-made instrument from the post-war era, it reflects the global expansion of toy manufacturing during this period.
The harmonica maintains its decorative artwork intact, showcasing the colorful graphics characteristic of mid-century design. Remaining unused in its original packaging makes this a particularly rare find for vintage instrument collectors.
