Nice figure I think this example may have been built by Len Insull Jnr, ,,, Looks a little different from Snr's style ...Its very sad to see "restorations" done by owners of the figures that have no idea what they are doing, seen quite a few over the years,the worst was a black jazz band .. all ruined.
but woa .... why would anyone want to paint those ugly eyes when the glass ones were better? ...... i dont get it , did people get more scared with the glass ones? because is obvious SOMEONE painted the new ones next to the original ones .... i still dont get it
@NekoNatsume Because the eyes were jammed with only the whites showing and the only way to fix the problem was to cut into the head - a job that was best left to someone who knew what they were doing, like this guy.
i want to buy that doll .. please can i have him?

What a really interesting find. Whoever painted on the eyes had no idea how the thing was made or that it could be repaired...
really great vid
