    I was hoping to get some information on this little guy.
    This little Nodder doll stands 2 1/2" with a bobble
    head. The most unique thing is he/she is wearing a Noh mask. You can see the string tied under the chin. I think he has some age to him/her as there is crazing of the lacquer finish. and peeling paint unfortunately
    Has some Japanese writing on different areas that I can't translate.
    Any and all comments welcome.
