Old Handmade Wooden Acrobat Squeeze Toy, Orange and Blue my mothers chair to cheer my lot /

to cheer my lot / A vow which raised sweet pleasure's glow / And seal'd my bliss - "forget me not"

and with little blue and green dot patterns on both exterior and interior

I think it is a pretty gorgeous thing

in a powder room or on a vanity

I found this piece at a fantastic antique shop in Hew Hampshire filled with extraordinary things

Old Handmade Wooden Acrobat Squeeze Toy, Orange and Blue my mothers chair to cheer my lot /As previously noted, I have a hard time resisting these old acrobat squeeze toys when the acrobats themselves are really good, which I think this guy most definitely is! I love his egg shaped body, and especially the Easter egg like paint job on it, perfectly complemented by striped sleeves and tights. And the ^ shaped raised eyebrow and red lined open mouth and those funny little shoes! are the perfect final touches! Very good condition and works
