Bring a touch of nostalgic whimsy to your interior with this authentic Mid Century Modern Hobo or Tramp clown figurine. Hand painted with a vibrant polychrome finish, this reclining character captures the classic circus aesthetic popularized in the 1950s and 1960s.
This piece features a reclining clown in the traditional Emmett Kelly style, wearing a tattered suit with visible patches and a miniature top hat. He is depicted in a jovial, relaxed pose holding two bottles, showcasing the expressive, slightly weathered charm typical of vintage carnival chalkware. The matte texture and hand applied pigments give it a unique, folk art feel that contrasts beautifully with modern or eclectic decor.
Era: 1940s-1960s.
Style: Mid Century Kitsch. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
