Very Excellent Kid Made Ceramic Dinosaur handpuppet withsome scattered small dark marksI am guessing this is meant to be a dinosaur; whatever the case, it's my new favorite creature! I pulled this out of a box filled with pinch pots and the like, I think mostly the work of the child of a potter and a few dated from 1991, so think this is about that age and so good! 5 3 8" l x 1 5 8" w x 2 1 2" and in great shape, with no chips or cracks that I can see.
