Here we have a wonderfully eerie composition wind-up walker doll by Waterbury Clock Co., decked out in a checkered suit and bowler hat. He was built to shuffle along when wound, but time and wear have left him in the “display only” category as his mechanism no longer works. The real showstopper is his face: the once-smooth composition has aged into a mesmerizing web of cracks, giving him the look of an antique mosaic or Freddy Krueger.
