| Object history | A quote from the journal Puppet Master for April 1947 (Vol. 6 No. 1) by Mary Saunders states that these puppets are part of a yet to be seen production and "will, someday soon, move across our small stage before a live audience" The puppets may therefore be later than originally documented |
