Vintage Crochet

Isn't this little guy so cute? We visited Dunn, NC the other day, to put flowers on my Brother's grave. Many of my family members are buried there.  A couple of my Aunts and various cousins still live there, so we stopped to visit my Aunt Jackie on our way home.  I saw this in her bathroom and just had to snap a picture.  It is a toilet paper roll cover. It is fairly old, mid 70's, I believe.  The poor guy is close to losing an eye, but it isn't often I get to see a piece like this, as old as it is and still functioning. Cool.
