Their short pantaloons considered risqué, theatrical-form tobacconist figures were likely displayed in theaters as well as cigar stores. For an example of a "Theatrical Figure" from the Demuth catalogue see Frederick Fried, Artists in Wood: American Carvers of Cigar-Store Indians, Show Figures, and Circus Wagons (New York, 1970), p. 44.
