Robot Looking Old Toy Soldier Mold mid-century toys and 5/8's of an inch

and 5/8's of an inch wide

and it is made in three parts that fit together via pegs extending from each section (the head sticks into the body

at the center of which is the grommeted hole from which string would be pulled (this would have been kept on a desk

Cheery and moody and folky and elegant all at once

And the clear molded glass bottle itself seems to be quite an old one

Robot Looking Old Toy Soldier Mold mid-century toys and 5/8's of an inchWhat I like about this old toy mold is how, in its fairly degraded state, the soldier looks to me like quite like a robot, making it feel nostalgic and futuristic both. Just one side of what would have been a front and back mold, and just a small thing, but I really like it. 3 5 16" x 2 1 8" x 9 16". 1920s 40s or so I might guess, in fairly aged condition, all to the good I think.
