    Hi,

    I just bought this cutie at an estate in Jersey.
    Looks like it's made from paper mache and twisted paper legs on a cardboard base.
    Lady I bought it from told me it was a baby shower stork from the 40's.

    Can anyone tell me how old it is and what it was for?
    Thanks!

      I agree with the lady it would most likely appear on top of a cake at a baby shower or in a center piece . I can't tell what it is made of by photo so hard to date . I have one posted similair and it is from 40'-1960's . Very neat I love it .

      It is a very nice item and it is amazing that it made it so long because of it construction Keep it dry! I like it.
