Crab PuppetA4104

Supernatural ground crab puppet. Wooden carved figure depicting a crustacean with four bent legs on each side of the body and two claws on either side of the face. Inside the hollowed-out interior is a spool, which attaches to two spools of string: when pulled, these would allow a person to cause the figure to scuttle along. The figure is painted in brown with black and white details.
