Description

Song of the South Don't Throw Me In the Briar Patch Artist Proof Figurine Set (Connoisseur, undated). An incredible set of four fine English china figurines depicting characters from the 1946 live action/animation film. Included among the four pieces are Brer Fox holding Brer Rabbit by the ears, Brer Bear with a huge club in his hands (and a missing patch of fur on his tail end), the Tar Baby sitting on a log, and an intricate bit of Briar Patch. This is one of two Artist's Proofs sets made, for a planned edition that was never produced, making this an ultra rare set. The Brer Bear figurine is the tallest of the four pieces, measuring approximately 14" tall, and the Briar Patch the widest, at approximately 11". The figurine of Fox holding Rabbit has been cracked along the ears, under the Fox's hand, and repaired with glue; other than that, the four pieces are in Excellent condition. Needless to say, these are very delicate items that will require special handling and third party shipping. From the Kerby Confer Collection.
