A charmer of an old carving, with this dapper fellow looking to me as if about to accept an important award, perhaps a Pulitzer, or an Oscar, or the Nobel Prize! As such, he seems especially good company to me--and one with whom I might share all of my best ideas! Really wonderfully done, those excellent spectacles best of all, with blue eyes behind them and a terrifically painterly face.
4 7/16" t x 1 1/2" w x 1" d and in excellent condition, 1940s or so I would guess.
