Three Tiny Hand-painted Penguins antique carved anchor The smaller measures 4 1/2"I found these three together, and would hate to break them up, though I believe the one at left is something of a third wheel. The center and right one are wooden, on turned bases, while the left one appears to be some sort of plastic. All three though were hand painted, and definitely have some age, and together make quite a happy family I think. Largest measures 2" tall; small wood one 1 1 4" t, plastic 1 3 8" t. All are in very good vintage
