THIS IS A WONDERFUL OLD WOODEN TRAVELING SALESMAN WOOD CARVED FIGURE. HE IS JUST OVER 12" TALL, X 7" WIDE FROM FRONT TO BACK. THERE IS NO SIGNATURE ON THE BOTTOM. HE IS LOADED WITH A BACKPACK FULL OF GOODIES. THIS IS FROM THE ESTATE OF AN OLDER WOMAN, WHO TOLD HER DAUGHTER SHE GOT IT IN GERMANY. I DO NOT KNOW THE AGE OF THE PIECE, OR WHEN SHE GOT IT. HE IS VERY CHARMING & WHIMSICAL, & THERE ARE LOTS OF DIFFERENT ITEMS IN HIS PACK, PITCHERS, JUGS, BOTTLES, POTS, PANS, WOODEN CLIPBOARDS HUNG FROM HIS HAND, A REMOVEABLE STAFF IN HIS HAND, A ROLLING PIN, A HAMMER OR MALLET, BOWLS, & ROLLED UP BLANKETS. NO CHIPS , CRACKS, OR DAMAGE, BUT THERE IS A BIT OF COPPER PAINT MISSING FROM THE 2 PANS HANGING FROM HIS SIDE. THE REST IS IN GREAT CONDITION. HE IS A GREAT PIECE OF FOLK ART, & A REAL CONVERSATION PIECE.
