They went on to create a wide variety of original sculptures, many of which are becoming very collectable. These vintage Oriental Standing Monks Statues are designed to go together as a set, and the taller monk appears to be reading over the shoulder of the other monk (or perhaps he’s asleep?) The statues are 7 1/4” and 9” tall and dated 1975. They have a slightly stained patina, which is natural and part of the Durastone finish.

1940’s- 50’s Snow White Carnival Chalkware Figure
Year: 1940’s, 1950’s
Manufacturer: Unknown
Condition: Very good condition figure
1st edition vintage collectable
To be honest I’d never heard of carnival chalkware until I saw this item at an estate sale. The date is unknown, but most carnival chalkware was made in the 1940’s or early 50’s. The statue has a primitive painted look on purpose, and is decorated with glitter, making it a unique variation.
Snow White is unmarked, so she’s probably not a licensed product based on the Walt Disney animated film, but instead a statue made for giving away as prizes. It’s a big 15″ tall by 5 1/2″ wide. Snow White has lost just a little of her glitter, (haven’t we all), but overall is in very good shape for it’s age, with no cracks or chips and the semi-glossy paint job is still bright and nicely done for a collectable originally given away at a carnival.
