I have NEVER seen a SUMIDA GAWA figure depicting such a wonderful and playful scene of three monkeys commencing a tickle attack on their owner – such whimsy! The art of tickling has a long history in Japan and was at one time considered a form of torture- how about that? ! Condition as seen in photos. Normal wear from age and use.
