Jim Linderman blog about surface, wear, form and authenticity in self-taught art, outsider art, antique american folk art, antiques and photography. Dull tool and dim bulb were the only swear words my father ever used. Items from the Jim Linderman collection of vernacular photography, folk art, ephemera and curiosities. (Note: if anyone believes an image contained violates their rights or insults their intelligence, simply point it out and I will remove)
Handmade Large Articulated figure Standing Man Vintage Industrial Folk Art
Bigfoot! This industrial articulated figure stands nearly 5 feet tall and the wood is 2" Thick. Adjustable screws allow the arms and legs to move. My guess is that this was a display model in a factory to show workers how to properly lift heavy items, but It could have served some other trade purposes. Mid 20th Century. Collection Jim Linderman
