Hand Carved Canoe with Figure in Cloth Clothing

In Very Good Condition

An antique or vintage artifact depicting a small wooden canoe containing a single cloth-wrapped doll or figurine lying supine inside it.

The doll is made of burlap-like coarse fabric, stuffed and sewn, with articulated limbs (wooden or stuffed arms and legs), a simple wrapped head suggesting a face, and loose threads indicating handmade construction and deterioration over time.
