Description: Over the years Fisher-Price made several different toys that featured a xylophone, however Fisher-Price made only two xylophone toys with Donald Duck. The first was the #185 Donald Duck Xylophone. The second was introduced in 1946 as the #177 Donald Duck Xylophone. Both Donald Duck Xylophones are similar, but the main difference is the hat. Donald has a band cap in the #185, but his hat is marked "Donald Duck" on the #177.
