The Frank Rider Collection - Spring Classic Part 1 - Day 2
Lot 1324a:
Description
This life-size, remarkably realistic mannequin head serves as a captivating representation of the iconic Uncle Sam, the personification of American patriotic recruitment. While often associated with the legendary “I Want You” posters, this particular piece captures a more mature, distinguished character aesthetic through its fine craftsmanship. It is expertly fashioned from molded wax, featuring striking, lifelike glass eyes, a thin layer of realistic gray hair, and a distinctively sculpted goatee. The hollow interior indicates it was designed to be fitted onto a display stand or mannequin torso for retail, museum, or promotional use. The condition is excellent for a piece of this nature; there are minor surface scuffs and general light wear consistent with age, but no visible structural defects or major damage. H 12″, W 10.25″, D 8″. Please see photos for condition.
