Schoenhut Humpty Dumpty Circus Chair antique treen box it reads as pure sculptureInitially 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
