they are folks, the REAL McCoy! Incredible and highly collectible true vintage pair of Black Americana salt & Pepper shakers, NOT the modern reproductions you frequently see. They are made of chalk ware or plaster and are approx 3" X 3",painted in reds, green and black. The little girl has a red bow in her hair and both figures have four holes behind their hair for salt & pepper. They have large grins on their faces while eating a big pieces of cold sweet watermelon . Good condition with no major chips or cracks,only the typical and expected paint that has pealed and rubbed off in places. The bottoms are unmarked and the corks are missing. I bought these at a small store in the French Quarter in New Orleans about 30 years ago. Extremely RARE and valued vintage pieces for any serious collector of Black Americana and Salt & Pepper shakers.
