Early Grenfell Mission Carved Wooden Eskimo Doll futuristic I find this old watch

I find this old watch stand incredibly sweet

A few tiny dings and rough spots but overall terrific condition

and it is one I handle pretty carefully as I believe it is really very old and somewhat fragile

or a whiskey

I especially love the face of the figure and hat held high in a wave to us

Early Grenfell Mission Carved Wooden Eskimo Doll futuristic I find this old watchThis wonderful carved wooden doll would once have been clothed in fur and leather, I believe likely with stuffed cloth legs and booted feet as well, but those clothes are long gone and I personally love it bare where all attention turns to the carved and painted drawn face. Quite a rare thing, it comes from Grenfell Mission in Labrador, a philanthropic organization founded by Sir Wilfred Grenfell in 1892 as a branch of The Royal National Mission,
