Fun and unusual vintage “The Basketball Player” cloth character figure by GB Weischadle, copyright 1992.
This whimsical basketball player features a wonderfully expressive dimensional cloth face, red yarn hair, red and white basketball uniform, striped socks and cloth sneakers. He is posed holding his original orange basketball and is permanently mounted on an oval wooden display base labeled “THE BASKETBALL PLAYER.”
The underside is marked © Copyright 1992 GB Weischadle and has the original #61001 label.
Measurements: Approximately 10 1/2" tall including the stand.
Condition: Very good vintage pre-owned condition with light age-related wear. Clothing remains bright, yarn hair is full, and the basketball accessory is present. There may be minor wear consistent with age and display. Please review all photos carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description.
A terrific quirky vintage display piece for a basketball fan, coach, sports collector, or collector of unusual cloth character figures.
