Athletic Show











I look at a lot of stuff (as I'm sure you realize), but my jaw dropped when I saw these! Simply amazing and for sale at Urban Country.

Seller's description:
American
c. 1920's
Fantastic pair of hand carved boxer and training athlete sculptures with original, layered park paint surfaces. These figures once hung outside of a carnival "Athletic Show," which popularly featured boxers and wrestlers fighting it out in the ring.

Available at Urban Country.
