Old Joe, what a sweet boy--and I find it particularly hard to resist a creature that has a name! He's got one leg that is a bit wounded too, which of course provokes my empathy all the more. With washers and wire at his joints, enabling his head, legs, and tail to move freely, such that he can sit, and lay, and will stand on his own too if properly balanced on a flat surface. Good, and different, painted face s(and spots) on both sides--smiling on one and straight-lipped on the other!
Approx. 9" long x 7 1/2" t with head up and tail down. 5 1/2" tall with head down.1 1/2" d. There is an old loss toward the foot of one rear leg, as pictured, but he can still stand up on his own Very good condition otherwise, with a great warm patina to the wood, pine I believe.. As found, there is an old wire strung through his mid-section that he could be hung from if desired (or which could be removed.)
