2175 Frontier Gear

Mattel’s Big Jim Karl May Frontier Gear, reference 2175, was released in Europe in 1976 as part of the original Western range inspired by the adventures of Winnetou and Old Shatterhand. This vintage accessory set represents the equipment of a frontier settler or farmer rather than a complete character costume. The boxed contents include agricultural and everyday Western accessories such as a harrow, pitchfork, shovel, axe, rifle, cookware, boots and other farm implements visible in the original presentation. The distinctive green wood-grain Karl May packaging identifies the set as part of Mattel’s 1976 Western expansion. Reference 2175 adds a civilian frontier theme to the Big Jim collection, complementing the horses, riders and Western figures issued during the same period.
