Carnies Go Commercial


Remember those hairy dolls that you tried to knock down with baseballs to win the “big” stuffed animal at your local county fair. They’ve been around for over a hundred years, but aren’t seen much these days…Generally speaking "circus punks", or knock down dolls, were handmade as needed by carnies…The beauty of the dolls was that, “back in the day,” they were all hand-painted…Some rather crudely and some incredibly detailed…One thing is certain – on a daily basis the dolls took a beating...




Well, they brought in ARTISTS from everywhere and have created their own Circus Punk Dynasty, above are a small sampling of whats in store for you when you visit their site. They are in very limited editions and are not cheap, but the coolness factor is extremely HIGH.

I KNOW WHAT I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IF ANYONES LISTENING....and they even come in MINI VERSIONS...YIPPEE
