SOLD Very Sweet, Very Naive Antique Hand-carved Acrobat Toy Made by Neal, Fifth Grade antique pigment a lovely portrait of anAbout as naive an old carved "acrobat" toy as it gets, which is why I really I love it. I learned from a note accompanying this sweet thing that it was published in Eleanor Lakin's 2013 Folk Art for Children: Handmade in America 1760 1940.
