Paper Mache Fish

I am not familiar with paper mache, but from what I've been reading, this piece seems to paper mache. If someone knows what the material would be, I would be so happy to know for sure. It is 18 inches in width and 14 inches in height. It is finished off in the back with a hanging device. Very little damage. Not sure of the age, but you can see a faint handwritten price of $1.98. For a larger look, please go to my homepage and use external gallery link. It is listed under paper, or I will be happy to provide additional photograph via email. I need your zip code to calculate the postage.
