(comment) It is manufactured by Rhinemar Co., Ltd., which was founded in Japan in the 1950s as a subsidiary of Lewis Marx. Popeye supports the olives sitting in the chair with his nose, and the spring drive rotates both arms of Popeye, and the baton held in his right hand plays the leg of the chair, making the olives spin around and juggle brilliantly. Popeye's trademark pipe is reproduced in wood, and the paint is in a beautiful state with vivid colors. Along with "Basket Popeye" on the next page, it is counted as one of the top 3 tin popeye toys by Rhinemar (Itami)
