Hey! Get Off Our Train! Nesting Doll - 6" w/ and 50 similar items

The Hey! Get Off Our Train! nesting doll is created to reenact John Burningham's book about a boy and his stuffed-toy dog on a magical train ride. The pair meet endangered animals along the way and invites them to climb aboard. Each piece of the nesting doll illustrates a scene from the story that helps an elephant, seal, stork, tiger and polar bear to safety. This doll is a wonderful gift for anyone that owns the book or just a way to help young people be aware of our endangered animals and perhaps one day we humans will think of a way to help them. These images have hand painted backgrounds and highlights, and for certain elements, Golden Cockerel reproduces the original hand-painted artwork on printed vinyl and artfully applies them to the dolls. The artist paints and blends the two forms of artwork together into a unified piece. Then the dolls have multiple layers of non-toxic water-based lacquer applied. The designs are done at the Golden Cockerel art studio in St. Petersburg, Russia. The bottom of the largest doll gets stamped with Golden Cockerel’s “Made in Russia” mark of quality, initialed by the artist, and dated like a true collectible. Size of the Largest Piece: 6 inches in height The Nesting Set Includes: Five Story Images Please note that the smaller pieces can be very small. Please make sure your recipient is old enough and wise enough not to swallow the characters (around three and older).
