Lot 21:
Description
A collection of three hand-painted Ron Lee clown figurines, each crafted from resin or a similar composite material with vibrant colors and metallic accents, mounted on an irregular, polished onyx base. The leftmost figurine, identified as a ‘Hobo Clown with Umbrella’ (signed ‘Ron 88’), depicts a clown holding a tattered umbrella, wearing a patched suit with pin-on buttons inscribed "DON’T READ THIS", "I (heart symbol) MOM", "CLOWN POWER", "SAVE THE CIRCUS", and a smiley face. The middle figurine features a clown leaning against a colorful slot machine (signed ‘Ron 90’ and numbered ‘222/3500’). The rightmost piece shows a sad-faced clown holding a broken red heart (signed ‘Ron 87’ and numbered ‘5951/8500’). Some bases feature decorative golden or reddish beads. Red tags visible on two pieces identify them as "Ron Lee Creative Concepts" creations.
Height (tallest): 9.5 inches (24.1 cm)
Height (shortest): 5.5 inches (14 cm)
Condition report:
Very good overall apparent condition. No visible damage beyond the intentionally distressed elements on the umbrella, which are part of the original design. Minor surface wear consistent with age and display may be present.
