Description
5" (13 cm.) A wax-over-paper-mache cucumber with painted finish has an oval cut-out at the
front in which are arranged eight tiny all-wax child dolls with painted colorful costumes,posed
against wax grass. The dolls appear to represent a family of children,shown as "steps" of
different ages,and the cucumber theme may be a whimsical reference to the well populated
family. Condition: generally excellent. Comments: probably early 1900s,maker unknown. Value
Points: delightful novelty with amazing detail of wax design and portraiture on these tiny figures.
