Pinocchio Design

This little Pinocchio has a tall green pointed hat above a round face with black painted hair, wide eyes, raised eyebrows, and rosy pink cheeks.

His long wooden nose projects from the center of his face, with a small red painted tip and a curved red smile underneath.

The rounded body is painted bright yellow with red and white details. A white collar separates his head from the body, while the lower section is painted deep blue with a black circular base.

The figure has a simple turned-wood construction, with rounded sections stacked vertically to create the familiar storybook character.

An original oval paper label remains on the underside, identifying Shackman and the Korean manufacturing origin.
