A fair cop

This rather bashful looking policeman was bought many years ago for my dear Nana. His head is attatched to a cork and we believe he once contained whisky!
His base is a music box which plays London Bridge is falling down. Judging by the stamp 'foreign' underneath, and the style of his tunic he is almost certainly postwar made in Germany.
When I was a little girl I used to beg to wind up the music box, so my nana, when she got to 90 , and wantedto make sure her things went to good homes passed him on to me.
He stands guard in my study and it's like Nana has put him there to make sure I work hard..... So I'd better go now!
