Here's a very old Boy hand puppet, from the world renown Punch and Judy Show! This puppet is a rarity made in Germany circa late 19th Century. The carving and painting on this piece are remarkable. Little boy has a fabric body with some lovely small wooden hands and legs. The costume is very worn with holes and stains. The fabric part of the legs have been folded and sewn to the skirt to make them look shorter. The head also shows wear with scuffs, paint loss, spots, discoloration and other age related marks. Despite its imperfections, this is an unconventional hand puppet character full of personality!
