Little Man in a (Treen) Box Spring Toy shell art Just so good

Just so good

barely noticeable

and there is an iron hook near the front

and I like it nearly as much from the back as the front

stapled along seams on the sides and top

Little Man in a (Treen) Box Spring Toy shell art Just so goodI'm not entirely sure whether this toy was created as I found it, or a one off creation of creative maker who combined treen canister, spring, and little man; I think likely the former a genie in a box but am not completely sure as I can't find another example out there like it. At any rate, the lid is threaded, and when you screw it off, up and out he springs! I believe most likely German Erzgebirge, and definitely with a good amount of age. One
