Object Description
The amusing and highly decorative printed pressed card and softwood pop up, modelled as two clowns, or Pierrots with typically brightly adorned face make up, pointed hats, shoes and costumes, the concealed clown popping up when the lower bullseye button marked ‘depose’ is pressed from a wooden mechanism, to a black line decorated backing with hanging cord, the whole surviving from the first quarter of twentieth century France.
