Nice 7. Craigslist photos
A few nice 7. craigslist images I found:
Help me ID these shriner bobble heads

About 10 years ago I started actively looking for these things and tracked down these 8 different versions. Some of them have dates placing them from 1950-60 and some are marked Japan. They are all made of sort of plaster body w/ something like paper mache heads . Some have real cloth tassels on their fezes, some are built in. Some have magnets in the base.
I found these at garage sales, craigslist and ebay.
It took me about 3 years to find the 8 that you see here but they have been largely ignored by me for the last 7. Recently I decided it was time to send them off to a better home and tried to find out more about them which hasn’t been so easy. Two or three of these seem to be more common and show up selling for – semi-regularly, some of them I’ve never seen for sale again since I bought them.
Anyone know anything about them?
