Item description from seller

Stuffed Voodoo doll of then-mayor of New York City, Rudy Giuliani. Ten sharp pins included, stuck and removable on the front side. Among the New York artists who were unhappy with Giuliani’s efforts to ban Chris Ofili’s elephant dung-covered painting, The Holy Virgin Mary, from the Brooklyn Museum, David and Jayne Freeman crafted a cotton stuffed doll with his likeness (a "bad news scowl") printed on both sides. The doll allows you to "stick it to him" with the pins included, or other sharp objects of your choosing. Encourages "real fun!" An ingenious toy to channel political rage. "Not for CHILDREN!". Stuffed Voodoo doll wrapped in plastic and tied with string, with paper label; ten needle pins on the doll. 14 in x 4 1?4 in x 1 1?4 in. Very good; pin-holes on plastic cover, light wear on label.
