Description
5" (13 cm.) A pair of naked children are modeled together, as though one child tries to kiss the other who is trying to escape, each with painted facial features, intaglio eyes posed to accentuate the scene, puckered or "O" shaped lips, mohair wig, painted white socks and brown shoes. Condition: generally excellent. Marks: 10308 (incised on feet). Comments: Gebruder Heubach, circa 1915. Value Points: the amusing scene is enhanced by fine detail of modeling.
