Those Pictures are really interesting. Especially the "name-board" on the left one. It seems to be a short "board" mounted on t-shaped steel work.

 

This is helpful for me, since my "wrecked" e-bay-prize lost it´s name boards completley. And since they are bended in the front area a bit it would be hard to re-generate them. The "steel-work" is something which seems to be easier to imitate.

 

Also interesting: the ugly "Nanny" .. Her painting is so ...  :rolleyes:  

 

I was learning that she lost her head and left arm in 19xx .. but it seems, the rest of her was original until she got a new one in 1957? The "old" one was found in her hold in the 1970s? Does anyone know more about the figure´s history?
