Colorful Old Wooden Acrobat Squeeze Toy on Stand pastel landscape very well worn and chipped

very well worn and chipped at this point

as one moves around it

I can never resist old treen cups and goblets

its face looks to me just like that of a big kitten

and great in a wide variety of contexts

Colorful Old Wooden Acrobat Squeeze Toy on Stand pastel landscape very well worn and chippedI find it impossible to resist these old acrobat squeeze toys when the acrobats are as good as this guy. How to resist this delightfully goofy, hand painted pink face, coupled with the fantastic turquoise and yellow of his outfit? I'd think he dates to the early 20th century, and extra nice that there is a base to squeeze handle, making for easy tabletop display. It takes a couple of squeezes to get him going, but once one does he's very acrobatic!
