MARIONETTES


I own two old marionettes. The first one is from the late 1800's and is a Sicilian marionette soldier. Weighs about 50 pounds and quite large. Found in a dumpster at my job. Rescued him and gave him a good home. The second is a devil marionette that I bought at an antique store in Prague. I went there looking for a devil, and found exactly what I wanted. He was used in many shows during the 1920's. These guys tend to creep out the more devout.
