I'm a huge fan of old boxing toys, of which I've bought and sold a handful, but I've never had, or seen, another I like more than this one. Super folky, and large as far as these go, it seems to me it is likely a one off, modeled on others but its own special thing. I love the very large front feet, the green shorts, and these terrific hand-painted faces imparting terrific character. (One of them reminds me quite a lot of Henry Rollins!) The push lever at center pushes them toward each other, and when pushed all the way down they'll cross a bit, as if wanting to hug. Really super.
