Description
22" (56 cm.) Depicting the beloved Winnie the Pooh from the classic tales of A.A. Milne, the prop figure was used by Shirley Temple in her October 2, 1960 episode of "Storybook". Winnie has a hard-core head and torso, with paper mache face and ears, painted features including bulging eyes, jointing at shoulders and hips, and unusual elaborate articulation of neck and waist designed for use as a puppet. Included is Shirley Temple's copy of the book The House at Pooh Corner by A.A. Milne, 1934 edition, and a vintage photograph of Shirley Temple with alternate version of the puppet having long lashes and hinged mouth. Circa 1961.
