Aha! Here it is, the Clockwork-Spider. I guess you could have thousands of these critters in a villains lair, doing his bidding, biting heros in the night, sending governesses up chairs and tables shrieking, you get the idea.

Another one of those webfinds… So here’s a toy that, judging from the boy’s haircut, was marketed somewhen in the 1930s (?). As to the innuendo, it was not intended as such. Well, just take a look:
