Wonderful Carved, Painted Folk Art Figure with Checkerboard round painter duster brush Lots of chipping to theI think it's an old blue Playskool block under the brown painted, carved stool upon which this wonderful figure sits, holding forth their checkerboard seemingly in perpetual hopes of soliciting a partner for a match.
