Here is the father of all clowns and another ancestor of Mr. Punch. He is assembled just as Maccus was: all five parts of stiff cardboard or thin wood; hinges loose enough to allow free movement; stick placed so as not to interfere with movement; control wire stiff for good control. (Coat-hanger wire is a little heavy, but stiff enough.) Harlequin dances mostly, although he can flag down trains very handily.
