BOBO
Crocodile Puppet 2
8" high x 98" long x 6" wide
$2000

This Bobo crocodile puppet has been vetted as authentic with evidence of use and age.

We are not sure of how the dancer/puppeteer carried the head and tail sections. We have hung it with the two pieces touching and a draped piece of cloth.  The jaw is independent of the head and opens and closes.
