Type SM Villain, a rarely seen early SM puppet from the early/mid 1950's.
He is in dusty condition with some age related defects.
The suit is made from the parachute type of material and has no holes but is dirty, the dust was apparent all over it.
The waistcoat underneath has no holes but is aged and dirty.
Little black tie is faded, white shirt collar is yellowed.
The felt hat is aged but no holes, just thinned and dusty from storage and age.
The facepaint has some minor loss on the left eye. No felt tongue. There is a hairline crack to the left of his nose, the nose is stable. The pin still attached to his forhead where the felt hat is usually secured.
The flock hair is dusty and faded. He has no side burns and there is evidence at both sides that they have fallen off.
He has a painted moustache.
He has large composition hands with rusted screw eyes at the wrists and some minor paint loss.
Shoes have some paint loss.
I was going to sell him unstrung so those are the first images, I then thought he would look better and show how he will look once restored a little, if he was strung. So he is quickly strung just to show him alive!
No box.
