This 1953 Marx Colonial style tin litho metal dollhouse is complete in the original box with 40 pieces of furniture. I only put it together partially for the photos, but all structural pieces are present and in excellent condition. It looks like it was put together once, played with for awhile, then taken apart and stored in the box for 60-odd years.

The main house has the standard two bedrooms, bath, kitchen, and living/dining room. There's also a detached family game room, separated from the house with a breezeway. The chimney and all five awnings for the windows are present. There are 40 of the original 50 pieces of Marx furniture. A complete inventory including the missing pieces is below.

The only other thing that appears to be missing are the assembly instructions, but I doubt they're needed - it's not hard to figure out how to put the dollhouse together. There is a single instruction sheet for attaching the awnings. The house is very clean with no rust, no broken or missing tabs, and only very light evidence of play wear. One roof corner has a small ding on the interior facing chimney side (third photo, lower right roof corner).

There are a few small scratches to the roofs, and the occasional random scuff to the walls or floors but nothing noticeable at all. The Kaufmann's Pittsburgh sales receipt was found inside the box. Both the receipt and the box have the model number 4027.

The box has the usual age discoloration and minor storage wear but is intact with no tears or splits. The last picture is not the dollhouse you will receive, the photo is only to show a fully assembled example. Nursery (complete): playpen, crib, dresser, high chair. Bathroom (complete): bathtub, sink, toilet, medicine cabinet. Master Bedroom: bed, chair, nightstand, dresser, vanity.

Vanity stool and one nightstand missing. Living Room: Sofa, coffee table, end table, 2 chairs, TV/entertainment center.

Dining Room (complete): Buffet, china hutch, table, 4 chairs. Kitchen: Fridge, stove, sink, 1 chair.

Kitchen table and 3 chairs missing. Rec Room: Couch, piano, table, 2 chairs, jukebox, milk bar, 2 stools. Piano stool, coffee table, and ping pong table are missing.

Note: The green tub or cradle shown in the furnishings photo is not original to the dollhouse and is not included in the count. Be sure to take a look at my other listings.
