These feel to me like just the right bookends for framing the dozen or so books next on the reading list, or, of course, the dog related books should one have a library of them! Perfect in black and creamy white, with great, Snoopy-like long ear on one and terrific shape the arching back on the other with point tail at the end.
Mid 20th c. or so I'd guess and in very good condition, sturdy and sound.
