Longing Little Painted Papier Mache Dog with Spring Tail white chair grater--the dealer I purchased it

grater--the dealer I purchased it from thinking that it was may have been used for grating shelled corn for cornmeal

this is a vintage "Kegelsport auf dem Tische" mini bowling game

which I love for its delicate spiky texture

15 1/4" x 13 1/4" framed and in excellent condition

with Jose and his family looking as if both signaling "help" and gratefully waving to her

Longing Little Painted Papier Mache Dog with Spring Tail white chair grater--the dealer I purchased itThis little papier mache doggy would make a very good companion for the little side glancing man I am listing next, with this pup's spring wire spring tail a perfect complement to the spring wire body of the figure. And the face on this pup really seems to express longing for company! Very sweet, with excellent red painted toenails, too! 2 3 8" t x 1 1 4" w x 2" d including tail. Though unmarked, my guess is this one was made in Japan, c. 1920s 40s.
