Hand-Painted Corn Husk Seated Man With Carved Wood Peg Leg, Circa 1940s. This atypical corn husk figure is detailed down to its individual fingers, suspenders and carved peg leg. The surface of this figure is completely hand-painted. A shaker-style chair was constructed to support this figure with a wood splint seat. Twice signed “Faith Hilton” on fabric medical tape (back of chair, and underside of chair). It’s possible this could have been created by someone in an institution or hospital.
