Charmayne's Fighting Boxer Push Puppets

My Boxer puppets ...

 

I have a new boxer which brings my total to 16. From the various versions of the Kohner puppets to the Swedish Brio pair to the very different Triang puppet I tried to show you all of them. Wakouwa had several versions, too, and I can't leave out the Kib-itz black boxer pair. Look down the page for close-ups of the labels and faces.
