This is a fun gift, it's a 17 inch tall salesman sample windmill.  It is made of metal, has a ladder on it.  These were used in the 60s era from what we have found. You can see some age and some imperfection in the metal struts, it's minor in our opinion, take a look.  The windmill does spin.  This is a neat display piece.
 
Take a look and don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions.
