<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Amy Ginsburg, post: 630199, member: 10882&quot;]My parents traveled extensively while alive.&nbsp; My Dad recently passed and now I have a number of vintage marionettes that may or may not be antiques.&nbsp; I have no details about them nor can I find any resources to help me understand what they are, where they are, and who might enjoy them.&nbsp; I do not have the space for them.&nbsp; Rather than post pictures of all of them at once, I&#039;ll just start with Yang (supposedly named for the location where my parents bought him, but I don&#039;t know if that was a city, a province, etc).&nbsp; He is about 5 feet long and there is amazing detail to him.&nbsp; Partly wood and partly canvas, he&#039;s quite the monster to get from one place to another, completely filling the backseat of my Civic.&nbsp; He is showing his age and I&#039;m not sure how to maintain him.&nbsp; If anybody has any ideas about how old he might be, where he might be from, his value, the type of audience that might be interested in him, I&#039;d appreciate it.&nbsp; (And yes, he&#039;s hanging from a rolling garment rack since my apt. was not big on the idea of installing hooks in the ceiling that could accommodate this weight).&nbsp; I&#039;ve one full body shot then one of his front half[ATTACH=full]182248[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]182249[/ATTACH]. His back half is equally ornate but the picture file is too large to attach.&nbsp; I&#039;ll try to take another picture and post it below.&nbsp; Thanks in advance![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
