Punch and Judy puppet: puppet head

Puppet head on a stick, part of a Punch and Judy set belonging to puppeteer Peter Butchard (1909-2009). It has a hooked nose and the remains of paint and fabric hair. It probably represents one of the female characters. The neck broadens out to make attachment of the fabric body easier.
