Dr. Seuss (Theodore Geisel)
Dr. Seuss, Semi Green Lidded Fawn

1999

About the Item

Dr. Seuss Semi Normal Green Lidded Fawn Hand Painted cast resin sculpture Ready to hang Adapted posthumously from the original 1930s plaster, horn, and oil on wood mount sculpture. In 1938 Paul Jerman, who had graduated from Dartmouth with Ted, wrote a brief biography of him for the alumni newspaper. Jerman said in part, “Another iron in the fire is what the doctor himself calls The Seuss System of Unorthodox Taxidermy. Not satisfied with drawing strange beasties, Ted modeled the heads of some of his animals and mounted them. Put on display in bookshops around New York to promote And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street, many people wanted to buy the weird animal heads.” Shortly after Ted created this unique collection of artworks, Look Magazine dubbed Dr. Seuss “The World’s Most Eminent Authority on Unheard-Of Animals.” To this day, Ted’s Collection of Unorthodox Taxidermy remains as some of the finest examples of his inventive and multidimensional creativity.
