Manitou Springs, the little mountain resort town at the foot of Pikes Peak, has long been known for its mineral springs and its souvenir shops. This painted plaster chalkware bust is the kind of tourist novelty that once sat on shop shelves there for visitors to take home. A figure in a yellow high-collar robe and hat, topped with a small black knob, it brings a bit of mid-century roadside Americana to a shelf, mantel or curio cabinet.
