A one of a kind Original Steinbach 9" Tall Volkskunst Traveling Man/Soldier Nutcracker masterfully handcrafted complete with his pipe, backpack, red felt hat, 4-wheeled cart loaded with cooking essentials and necessities, his pet dog, a rifle and a flag bearing his name perhaps(?) Herr Oberfeld-Kurat Katz+Schweijk,Josef.  Although not dated and I am no expert I suspect this piece could be pre-1900. It is in amazing condition for its age.  Sad to let him go however we are downsizing and need to find him a new home where he can be properly  displayed and appreciated. Sold as is per photos and available only for local pick up from smoke-free home in the Tampa area.
