Whittled Little Pink Cheeked Boy antique cap gun with a strap on side

with a strap on side of the interior for holding them in

So perhaps she was made as a souvenir doll

3/4" across at base

giving it all a rather magical and even more otherworldly feeling

and would be inclined to see that both figures see equal time in the sun

Whittled Little Pink Cheeked Boy antique cap gun with a strap on sideThis little waif looks to me as if a whole opera, or Dickensian saga, might unfold around him, with him as the innocent at the center of it all. Such a great face, with deep pink cheeks and dark red mouth and large ears that look as if paying keen attention. He's lost the toes on one foot which seems somehow apt but is still standing firm. 4 3 8 x 1: w x 13 16d. Aside from the loss of some toes in very good condition.
