Seated upon the back of a wooden chair is a character with composition head, brown glass eyes, highly characterized features with long pointy nose, wide beaming smile, rosy cheeks, dimples, brown mohair wig, carton torso and legs, composition hands. The character wears magenta silk trousers and black jacket with magenta lining, yellow silk vest, silk shirt with bow tie, green felt cap, and leather shoes, and holds a biscuit in its uniquely sculpted fingers. Movements: head turns from side to side, eyelids blink alternately, tongue moves in and out, and side to side, left leg taps the chair seat, and chest heaves as though breathing.
