Why You’ll Love It
A delightful companion to Alpine Girl, Randall Zadar’s “Alpine Boy” captures storybook Bavarian charm in astonishing miniature detail. Released for the Bavarian Festival in Frankenmuth, Michigan and debuted at Pinocchio’s Miniature Shop, he features a cheerful expression, tiny feathered hat, oversized bow tie, gathered shorts, and traditional Alpine styling. Created as #37 of Zadar’s designs, this permanently retired figure was produced in an edition of only 132 examples, making it a scarce and whimsical addition for collectors of Zadar’s tiny masterpieces.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
