I've never seen the Captain Marvel piece. Is that real? Or is it a new piece made to look old? Also, is he repairing the doll in the pic or is he making a doll?
Interesting stuff.Comment

It was produced circa 1946 and is exceedingly rare. My father frequently and fondly spoke of the one he bought when it was new, that the examples available to him all had some damage to their composite heads from shipping (and several to the hands and feet, made from the same materials), and how it disintegrated over time, and how much he truly enjoyed having it. He was astounded to know of it's near mythical status in Capt. Marvel memorabilia and the prices the few that have surfaced have achieved.
...is he repairing the doll in the pic or is he making a doll?
The man is a true genius/talent/visionary.Comment
