RARE Circa 1900 Antique Papier Mache French Bulldog Puppy. This is a rare bulldog as it is the smallest one you can get and there were not many made. He measures 18" wide. He has a nodding head a barking mechanism and wooden wheels. He does need some restoration to his ear and a spring adding to his mouth for the closing mechanism to work.
