Vintage skipping monkey battery operated Japan in box

Vintage 1960 Japan, skipping monkey toy. It appears to be new, but the box does have some aware as you can see in the photos. It is untested as I am afraid to take it out of the box and test it. The monkey has a rubber head and cloth cover body and it comes in the original box. Japan 1960s. Takes two size C batteries which are not included. Measures about 10 inches tall.
