La Corona and the Tin Frog - 6383

‘The Tin Horseman’, which is as you might expect) about a horseman made of tin, who is in love with the beautiful lady in the weather-castle. He sees her looking out through the weather-castle window and vows to rescue her from her entrapment there, but he is very afraid of the monkey inside the puzzle box. [It's one of those puzzles where you have to roll the little box with the ball-bearings in it and try and get the ball-bearings to stay in the eyes of whatever animal is drawn in the box - hopefully you know the kind I mean!] Eventually, he overcomes his fear and rescues the lady, and the evil sorcerer who, it turns out, was keeping the lady prisoner by means of enchantment involving fear of the monkey puzzle box ends up trapped in the puzzle box instead of the monkey.
