<p>[QUOTE="Darkwing Manor, post: 3801139, member: 738"]Cheap plaster chalkware was made by the truckloads for carnivals, etc. to give away as prizes for the marks who spent a small fortune trying to best the Midway games... always rigged. Associated mostly with the depression era, these range between 1910-1940s roughly. Yours is painted with an airbrush. Not worth a lot except for the few "special topic" figurals, but fun and kitschy memorabilia. <a href="http://www.antiqueweek.com/ArchiveArticle.asp?newsid=2806" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.antiqueweek.com/ArchiveArticle.asp?newsid=2806" rel="nofollow">http://www.antiqueweek.com/ArchiveArticle.asp?newsid=2806</a> [ATTACH=full]316892[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
