TYPE SM HUNTSMAN
Type SM Huntsman. He has come to the shop from the original first owner so has never been seen for sale.
It is in very poor condition with moth damaged clothes and hair, but it is a rarely found puppet so should be good for restoration and treatment.
He has lost a wooden nostril and the large carved wooden nose is loose, it is attached by the original nail.
The fur hair is aged and would come off the wood if pulled, it may need replacing. He has no moustache, it is missing.
The black cap is aged and brittle, I have lightened the image to show the bow still on the peak.
The red jacket is moth eaten and aged. The yellow waistcoat has a few holes at the bottom edge.
The white trousers also moth damaged on the edges of the wood parts.
He has a good cravat.
He has large composition hands which are perfect replacements and black painted wooden boots.
The blue label box does have a very faint stamp I think but is illegible, it does have Huntsman handwritten on the lid. It is shelf worn and dirty.
