Description : 'Expertic' King Nutcracker. Onion-shaped, natural wood crown with ball finial, painted face, black rabbit hair/beard, red/blue/gold jacekt, white pants, blue boots, gold scepter on right arm, on grey/gold round base. Size: 11" tall, 4" wide, 4" deep Nutcrackers with the “expertic”labels are no longer being made. These wooden nutcrackers from the Erzgebirge Region of Eastern (former) Germany were produced and sold under the “expertic” label between 1968 and 1989. The “expertic” label is that of the Expertic Trade Association formed in 1968 to export nutcrackers and other handmade items out of the German Democratic Republic (DDR) for much-needed currency. ( Source: ) Not in original box. From a smoke-free environment. Best efforts have been made to accurately describe any defects. Item is listed AS IS. Condition : Very good; slight discoloration on nose, some wear, see photos. History of Ownership : Part of a 300+ piece nutcracker collection assembled between 1969 and 1980 by a relative. In 1989, the collection was packed and stored in a climate-controlled facility. Upon the relative’s death in 2008, I received several items from the collection. I do not have the room to either display or store the items and hope they will go to someone who can and will enjoy them. Shipping : Shipping in the U.S. is via USPS Priority
