Devil Hand Puppet ~ Early 1900s Punch and Judy



Here's a charming antique Devil Hand Puppet. This is a rare find from an old Punch & Judy toy theater. Like the Skeleton, this is one of the special characters, only found in early sets. He comes in unusual large size with a carved wooden head. He is also beautifully hand painted. He has a fabric body with some lovely small wooden hands and legs. He is from German origin, likely made in the early 1900s. He has solid structure and displays well, but he shows age wear, gained during his many years of life. However his imperfections only give him an added layer of charm and personality. This great piece of history will certainly be a special addition to any antique toy or theater collection!
