This is a vintage 1978 Hindsgaul female mannequin that I was happy to purchase to make my display complete. She is seated on my early 1900s Eli Bridge "ferris wheel" seat. Took quite a while to locate a "seated" mannequin that would work just right to dress up my display and I'm so happy to have come across this one. Extremely realistic compared to the egghead or headless mannequins you see today. I don't know anything about Hindsgaul as a maker, but I believe it may have come from Denmark. Any history or knowledge you are willing to share would be more than welcome from fellow collectors! Thanks for viewing!
Very nice display, the perfect scale to fill the seat!!!
What's the Labatt's blue piece in the background, a light?

pickrknows, thank you, and yes it's a Labatt's Blue refrigerator light. Very rare one at that! I haven't found another anywhere.
pickrknows, I have the Labatt sign listed in my items, you can take a closer look with it lit up. Cheers!
