1920, FRANCE: This is a store window display with clockwork mechanism, featuring a tuxedo wearing gentleman in top hat mounted to a wood base. His intent was to be pointing to the product which would be displayed to his left on the wood base. When operating, his motion includes nodding his head and his right arm, making a pointing motion towards the product. His head and hands are made from composition and he has glass eyes. CONSIDERATIONS: The poor fellow is missing his pointing figure. The clothes are a bit soiled, but nothing excessive. He is clockwork operated and a little sluggish, since he has not been wound up in a while.
Condition: (Good).
Item Dimensions: 26 - 1/4" x 16 - 1/2" x 11 - 1/2".
