Vintage 1930s Effanbee Marionette Clippo the Clown Doll Puppet w/ Original Box
We are offering a vintage Effanbee marionette, measuring about 13.5” tall. The half of the box measures about 15.5” H x 7” W x 3” deep.
This piece is of a young boy with a red polka dot costume and clown face paint. Effanbee made a small selection of marionettes in the 1930s, most notably “Clippo” the clown. All strings appear to be intact. The marionette is still tied to the insert in the box. The head is made of composition.
This piece is the perfect addition to any collection.
Good to very good condition with some age-related wear. There is a tear on one side of the box present, and the previous owner taped the corners. There is some expected yellowing and moth damage to the white felt fabric of the collar and hat. We have not attempted to remove the marionette from the box.
