A different sort of whistling automaton figure

There isn't much of a description for this antique whistling figure other than it is 30cm tall, made of wood, needs to be lubricated, and until recently shook its head and whistled. What I find interesting is that it is not the typical drunkard leaning on a lamppost motif. I think I see the end of the word "GERMANY" on the mechanism close up, but I'm not sure. Here's a shot of the back side:

Here's the full ebay listing, with a close up show of the mechanism of this unusual antique whistling figure.
