Today we are happy to offer for sale a wonderful pair of 1940's Small Fry Club marionette puppets! Small Fry Club, presented by Bob Emery, was a children's television program that was broadcast on the DuMont Television Network. It debuted on March 11, 1947, with the title Movies for Small Fry and ended on June 15, 1951. Initially a weekly program, it grew in frequency to five days per week and in 1948 was aired seven days a week. The program is notable for having been "the first networked children's show". This fun and whimsical set of marionettes was manufactured by Peter Puppet Playthings of Long Island City, NY. Each marionette (girl and boy) features a composition, hand-painted face with wooden body, hands and feet. They wear bright and cheerful colorful clothing and come in the original boxes. The set presents well and is in good vintage condition with typical signs of play including minor wear and patina commensurate with age. There is minor crazing to faces. The boxes have minor shelf wear, scuffing and a few tears. This delightful pair of marionettes, from the golden age of television, will make a great addition to any vintage and antique toy collection. Fresh to the market!
Dimensions/ea (excluding strings): approx. 14" in height, 5" in width, 3" in depth
