The 1930s Kilgore Mickey Mouse Bubble Buster, a pop gun that was designed for use with rubber “Bubblets”.  A bubble would be wrapped around the end of the barrel and you would pump the plunger to inflate the bubble (a balloon) until it popped making a loud noise. Unknown working condition.

Vintage tin litho "Space Gun", is a mechanical noise maker.  Pull the trigger repeatedly and it makes space age noises! Working condition.

Vintage tin litho J. Chein "Sparkler" toy, is a thumb-operated friction toy.  The interior would spin making noise and sparks. It definitely spins well, but we saw no sparks. Maybe it needs a new flint. It comes with the original box.

Notice: These items are located in a basement with no walk-out access. There is a finished wide stairway with a landing and turn midway. Please bring boxes or containers to carry your items up the stairs, and bring help if needed.
