Old Folk Art Black Scare Cat with Double Eyes vintage handmade chair One page torn outA great scare cat to begin with, but it's extra set of eyes on both sides definitely put it over the top! It seems quite possible that this one actually lived in the garden, made to scare off varmints, and the first pair of eyes wasn't quite doing it, so the second set with red eye balls was painted to do the trick! Whatever the case, a pretty special one I think, wonderfully strange, and the whiskers are pretty excellent too. 13 7 8 t x 9 l x 11 16
