Default Post Your Nicest Figural Pieces!

Posted By: Mark Steinberg

Great pieces, Clint! I just love the Tiger and the Indian... there is also a Pirate just like these. I still regret selling it about 5 years ago. It was much rarer than I thought.

Greg... I am in Seattle, but moved recently from SD. Haven't encountered many fellow collectors here in the NW... so I am glad I found this site

The colorful Catcher is a Shafer-Vater piece from the turn of the Century. I can't believe how lucky I was (got it for $200 off Ebay Buy It Now, and in NRMT condition!) Amazing detail, when you see it live. I have never seen another since, let alone in this condition.

Here are a few more figurals...

The left piece is a rare "Turn of the Century" Pairpoint Termometer. The middle piece is actually a 1930s Cigarette Holder disguised as a Trophy. The Batter Trophy on the right has been a favorite of mine for quite a while...
