Another OMG Creation in Miniature
By Frank Matter, miniature maker extraordinaire
These have to be seen to be believed.
WORKING METAL ROLLER SKATES IN 1:12 SCALE.
If you grew up in the 30\'s to the 60\'s then you might remember these.
These are exact copies of those very skates.
I have found the key which does adjust the skates. It looks differentthan the key I had, but hey, it works.Frank was a prolific and masterful miniature artisan working in the 50\'s through the 70\'s.
He did things that no one today can come close to. IMO.
I have been obsessed with Frank ever since I learned of him and his work long after he passed away.1:12 scale. In perfect scale.
Very rare. Exquisite.
From the Joseph Gray Collection TOTALLY MUSEUM QUALITY.
Please see my other sales for more of Frank\'s work
