Frantz the accordion man

[JoeVM]

This little accordion player was inspired by the one Grillo posted a couple of weeks ago. I changed his face and hat to make him this little German guy.

Great carving Joe! Not sure of the size, but it looks quite small, ..... you've put a lot of detail in that tiny piece of wood.

[JoeVM]

Thank you all for your nice comments.
Wayne, he's 4 inches tall.

My brother and sister-in-law named him Franz. There is a little story that goes with his name. I will attempt to put it into a poem.

Frantz the one-man band

There was to be a wedding in this little country town
The brides father wanted the best band in town
Get Frantz the accordion man
They say he's the best one-man band around.

Then came the date
Bur Frantz came late
He walked in the door
His music box dragging on the floor
He was full of good cheer
But he had had too much beer

The one-man band
Couldn't even stand
So what could they do
They plugged in the juke box
And danced until two.
