Storage find.I'm not an expert,I know very little about this lot of items.However I did find some information.Day Of the dead figures.The
Day of the Dead
(Spanish: Día de Muertos or Día de los Muertos) is a Mexican holiday celebrated in Mexico and elsewhere associated with the Catholic celebrations of All Saints'
Day
and All Souls'
Day
, and is held on November 1 and 2. ... It is commonly portrayed as a
day
of celebration rather than mourning.
19-20 figures.Most are paper mache.One with the name under bottom 2 skeletons sitting appear to be stoneware pottery.The women hats are off but I have them.Most are marked,written on bottom "Mexico".There are some flaws,the chief has a broken arm but it's still with the figure.The musicians bottom leg is off but still inside the little shed.There's one little guy who is sitting,but I have no idea where he belong.Still agreat folk art display.I welcome comments and corrections.I try very hard to be honest,any flaws overlooked I assure you are not intentional.Any problems with my items please contact me before filing a case or leaving negative feedback.
