Old Red Oil Cloth Cat with Exposed Stuffing tramp art bank There is some some cracking

There is some some cracking where the composition covering the body meets the painted wooden legs and a bit of scuffing and paint loss here and there

and I might think fairly early at that

what a super piece to display (and provide reading material) in the guest bathroom

and very finely made

Of substantial scale and heavy but hollow on the interior (made using a mold I believe) with a bright pink felt pad on the bottom

Old Red Oil Cloth Cat with Exposed Stuffing tramp art bank There is some some crackingI really love this thing, for its silhouette and super primitively stitched face for sure, but also for the way it is falling apart on the backside, revealing guts comprised of little scraps of all sorts of bright colored fabrics and threads, whatever was around to stuff insideto my eye, super beautiful! One needs to be gentle with it to keep these from spilling out, but as of the moment everythings holding in place okay. 8 t x 4 3 8 w x 2 3 8 d.
