Rare Antique German Bisque Jointed Kitty ww2 germany drawing very well doneOne certainly sees antique jointed bisque baby dolls around, but much rarer to find a cat this one German, circa 1890 or so I believe. From what I've learned there were a variety of jointed dogs and cats made in this manner, but they're quite scarce now, making them pretty valuable little things. I really like the painted face and red bow on this little kitty, who can pose in a variety of ways. 2 1 8" l x 2 1 4" t. Good antique condition, no chips or
