The treasure hunter who discovered these puppets brought them to Lettie Schubert,
puppeteer and collector. She donated them to the IPM collection. We deduced
that they were Perry Dilly's puppet from Faust. One of the figures is Hans Sach,
another is Dr. Faustus and the lovely lady can only be Helen of Troy.
