He operates with eight strings held on one bar. He retains his original clothing but he has been modified and repainted to use in a different production-a common practice with puppets. In its original venue, this little elf was made by the Tatterman Marionette Co., who performed the play "Mrs Cinderella" at the General Electric Show at the 1939 New York World's Fair. Led by William Duncan and Ed Mabley, the Tatterman Company toured the country and performed thousands puppet shows to promote the wonders of electricity. In the skit, Cinderella and her handsome prince are happily married but live in a drafty, old castle inhabited by little elves who do everything the difficult way-sans electricity! Cinderella's fairy god mother advises her to call General Electric who arrives with all kinds of new electrical appliances that make life so much easier Currently not on view Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Tatterman Marionette Company Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context http://dp.la/api/items/b96f939df7b9b208c775cd9813743e8b Title A name given to the resource Elf Marionette Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Smithsonian Institution Subject The topic of the resource Puppets Tatterman Marionette Company Worlds Fair Puppetry Advertising Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1939 Type The nature or genre of the resource image References A related resource that is referenced, cited, or otherwise pointed to by the described resource. http://collections.si.edu/search/results.htm?q=record_ID%3Anmah_662360&repo=DPLA
