A wooden puppet, yet free from any strings.
A humble donkey, yet of unsuspicious strength and gentleness.

@northy thank you very much! @maggiemae too kind of you! @vignouse all three are real: only the photos have been taken some decades apart... thank you (and indeed, Pinocchio is certainly the only one unchanged! @mikegifford it was quite an insane work to bring the puppet and the donkey close to the vintage print! Thank you! @summerfield I'm the one!!! Thank you so much and yes, bravo everyone!
@ludgate Thank you a lot, Megan, it came quite out of the blue! @s4sayer Thank you, Margo, it would be nice sometimes to see your take on our weekly themes!
