Punch and Judy Puppet Heads ~ Early 1900s Punch_Judy_Puppet

Punch and Judy Puppet Heads ~ Early 1900s Punch_Judy_PuppetHere are two gorgeous antique heads of Mr Punch and his wife Judy. They come from hand puppets used in an old Punch & Judy toy theater. These puppet heads were finely carved and beautifully hand painted. They were likely made in Germany in the early 1900s. Their structure is solid and they display nicely but they show wear, gained during many years of play. However their imperfections give them an added layer of personality that only early toys have.
