    (220 items)

    I found this today at the dump shame it's headless but still a nice piece. Its hands and arms are Articulate,the body is made of Cardboard-mâché with Original stand.
    Sorry the photos are not as good as I took them at work and haven't taken it home yet.

    "Hope you like it manikin,I put it on here Specially for you as you have been so helpful with my Items it's the Least I could do :)"

      Those arms are wood, aren't they?
      Is the body papier maché?

      Thanks guys,I'm glad you like it. Yes the arms n hands are made from wood and the body is Paper mâché.
      I had to look up "Henry Poole" and I have seen them before in the yard but Never tho to pull them out :/ but now I know,if I see one it will Definitely will not be going to the landfill. Thanks again :)

      I thought body looked like paper mache which dates it as a early display piece . I do believe arms may have been added later they are not same age as body and often the torso's for display did not have arms .. I would leave as is and display it . !

      Adjust both of those arms like it is holding a baby, tighten the screws, push back against the wall there, place your game controllers in the arms, and Voila! you now have the coolest video game controller holder around. Great score.
