A Paula Sillisculpt from 1972 #AW-40 To The Man Of The Year For The Next 100 Years Resin Figurine
Sillysculpts first appeared in 1968 made by Russ Berrie of R&W Berrie, a company that manufactured trinkets and collectables for gift shops and mom n pop dime stores.
Since a greeting card was typically thrown away or stored away in a box somewhere, someone got the bright idea to turn a Greeting Card into a sculpture. Simple resin sculptures that depict an ugly statue with googley eyes that could be displayed on a shelf or curio were created. A greeting card that lasts forever ... so to speak.
Figure measures approximately 4 1/2" high, 5 3/4" long and 3 1/2" wide
This figurine is in very good condition. No chips or cracks. The felt pad on the bottom is in fair condition. Please see the photographs for additional condition information.
