    This is my handsome Nutcracker King. I am hoping to get a little more information on him. He was given to me sometime in 1981 or 1983 for Christmas when I was (an still am) infatuated with the ballet. My parents bought him at a shop in Kennebunkport, ME. I was truly like Clara in the ballet and slept with him Christmas night. Alas, he never came to life to fight off the rat king that night, but I have treasured him ever since.
    I'm posting to show him off and to see if I can get anymore information on him. I have no interest in ever selling him so I'm more interested in finding out about where he may have been made, who made him, etc than value. Besides he's gotten a bit grey in his old age so his value is more sentimental anyway.
