Original prop special effects doll of Lon Chaney Jr.
"The Wolfman"
"ABBOTT & COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN" (1948)

Has two holes in the wrists where they attached
Dracula in his bat form

This scene was achieved with a matt painting so a miniature Wolfman was needed

The wig has been added just to enhance the display
In recent years an archival expert from the studio paid
a visit to see the prop and confirmed that this is the original
The studio has also tried to buy it back for their archives
