Schoenhut Humpty Dumpty Circus Chair 1970s exhibition poster and sweet chip carved borders

and sweet chip carved borders on both sides

I really love this old hand holding a ball between two fingers just as an object to set anywhere

I am not certain the age on this piece

Especially because of the oar she is holding (which makes me especially love this)

The wood on this one is especially lovely

Schoenhut Humpty Dumpty Circus Chair 1970s exhibition poster and sweet chip carved bordersInitially founded to make toy pianos, the Schoenhut Piano Company, based in Philadelphia, debuted its Humpty Dumpty Circus in 1903, and I do believe it was the best thing they ever made not just for the clowns and animals, but also for the circus furniture, including ladders and pedestals and this 100% perfect chair! Really sort of iconic, and pretty hard to beat. 5" tall x 3" wide and deep. Good condition, nicely aged, very sturdy. A few dark marks
