The pocket radio, like other FP pocket radios is made with a wood box, plastic front, plastic dial and a vinyl carrying strap. The wood back and sides are covered with lithographs.
The bottom of the radio has the toy number #746 as well as the FP information. This particular radio has movement from Japan.
The back of the radio has those oh-so-familiar words:
It's a world of laughter,
a world of tears;
It's a world of hopes
and a world of fears.
There's so much
that we share
that it's time
we're aware.
It's a small world
after all.
Are you humming it yet? This puts me in the mood to take a trip to Disneyland. :)
Just like the Disneyland ride as the dial moves around there are pictures of little children from all over the world.

Awww... this was my all time favorite when I was a kid. The funny thing is, even when I outgrew that little gem, it kept popping up in the oddest of places. Ironically, now that I wanted to pass it on to my 6 month old daughter, my mom tells me that it is no longer there!
ReplyDeleteMuch to my shigrin, I couldn't find it online. At least, I stumbled on your blog and was able to see a long lost friend!! Thank you.
Such a sweet story! I had the Twinkle Twinkle music box when I was a kid and am lucky enough that my mom saved it! I just happen to have a Small World music box in my Etsy shop right now, I listed it last week. :) Not sure if it is in your price range but here is the listing: https://www.etsy.com/listing/215421824/fisher-price-pocket-radio-small-world?ref=shop_home_active_1
