Robert Thompson of Kilburn (1876-1955)
Mouseman staff / walking stick
oak
of octagonal form
carved mouse
87.5cm high.
Provenance: vendor says he showed the cane to current owner of Mouseman, Ian Cartwright Thomson, and in his view there is no doubt that the walking cane is definitely Mouseman. However, ICT believes it was probably cut down from a church banner.
