Red White & Denim
~Uncle Sam the Tax Man~




Happy April 15th to you!
This simply primitive Uncle Sam is a
*Dogpatch Primitives Original Design*
from my Red White & Denim © Collection.

Uncle Sam is made from painted and worn muslin. He measures 20" tall including his hat. His torso is partially rag stuffed. His eyes and mouth are painted, and his nose and brows are sculpted. His hair and goatee are sheepswool, felted into place.
He sports a coat w/ tails, which I've made from stained and worn denim, and stenciled some stars to the front. I've embellished it w/ two mismatched vintage military buttons.
He has an osnaburg shirt w/ a red vest, and bow tie, and trousers made from brown and cream striped ticking. I've hand stitched some patriotic ric-rac to them. All have been stained for a nice aged appearance. I've given Sam a coordinating Top Hat to match his "get up".
Sam comes w/ his handmade American Flag and a tag which reads "USA"
He can sit or hang from the loop on his back.
Sam is suitable for display any time of the year in your Early Prim home, but he'll be especially charming during the Summer months with all of our wonderful Patriotic Holidays.
He'll come signed and dated by me :)

Price- $97.00 plus $8.00 Priority Shipping in the continental USA
