This could be my very favorite old wooden cutout doorstop ever. 1. It's a penguin. 2. The flapping position of the flippers. 3. The feet. 4. The paint job, including this great painterly use of gray for outlining and shading the belly. And 5, perhaps best of all, the alligatoring of the creamy white paint and just terrific overall wear and aging. Really a warm, charming, satisfying thing.
7 3/4" tall x 8" wide x 4 1/4" d. Great structural condition. The doorstop piece screwed into the back is metal, and I think could be removed it one wanted, though it makes for a nice and easy way to stand him up to display on a shelf.
