A Very Unique Toy

In our attempt to offer specialty products to the visitors of our online shopping mall we came across a very unique toy from a company called Lehman's.

Lehman's has been serving the Amish and others without electricity with products for simple living since 1955.

Home decorators, curiosity-seekers, and the chronically nostalgic absolutely love their thousands of unique, non-electric products.

Everything from grain mills, oil lamps, candles, hand water pumps to old-fashioned hand tools.

They're like a general store from 1890 and have been featured in dozens of media outlets.

Today we want to tell you about this unique toy that we were lucky enough to find and share our discovery with you.

Even Grandpa will enjoy it too because this type of toy has been popular since the 1920s.

These steam-powered toy boats look like antiques, but they're actually funtional toy boats.

The brightly painted tin body and authentic look makes these boats not only a collector's item, but also a toy your kids will want to play with.

Here's all you do to make them work. Just fill the reservoir with water and the fuel pan with olive oil.

Steam is generated when water is drawn into the pipes and hits the hot boiler inside the boat.

Forward movement is caused by steam pulsing out of tubes under water at the rear of the boat.

These unique toy boats are very reasonably priced and will give your children many hours of enjoyment.

You can purchase the original speedboat style or the jumbo harbor tug; or, browse more non-electric toys by visiting Lehmans.com, here.
