Laverne Lovell's Excellent Toothy Pumpkin clothes pin doll 7 1/2" tall and wideSomething about a good kid drawing of a jack o' lantern, and what a set of teeth on this one! This is one of a few small masterpieces by Laverne Lovell I brought home from Brimfield, one other listed today. Pure joy. 9 1 8" x 6". Good condition, with some toning along left and top edge as evident. Black reverse (i forgot to photograph.) C. 1940s or so I believe.
