Left
to right; Timpo
over-mould/swivel-waist; a Hong Kong giantess and what I think is the Ohio Arts version of the Auburn Rubber farm girl - I'm going on
Kent Sprecher's comparison shot and the little 'smile' of the apron's hem seems
to indicate Ohio along with the cowl
of her hat?
I
don't think it's a bucket either, it's a basket of bread so what the hell's she
doing in the same tub!
Same
procedure; Timpo 'solid' from
hollow-cast mould; Charbens -
likewise but re-cut with a larger base; Crescent
(with passing goose!) aaaaand . . . not 100% on this one (there's some mileage
for TJF!), early British - for sure -
she looks like Hilco? She's similar
to the Charbens one, but that sculpt has a solid stool (upturned bucket or
log/stump) while this is more like the Britains
stool and looks similar to the Johillco
lead version?
All
Britains, the early one is almost certainly a re-paint, but well matched,
colour-wise I think? The rest are later HK vinyl's, indeed the last one (with
separate - hinged handle - bucket) may be a China-for-Racing Champions or Tomy effort? Actually one of these only has a basket . . . and that
last one has both, I must have decided buckets and/or baskets for the tub; I'll
let Ms. Ohio off!
I
know I have some of the intermediate Herald
stuff (from the Charity-shop bags last year/earlier this year) but I thought I
had some with these, I suspect it's just because I sorted tons of them when I
worked for a dealer a decade ago (where does the time go!); so we will return
to them once they have all been sorted together.
Women
with buckets [or baskets!] . . . there's more!
