The DETAIL AND FINE FORMING OF THE FINGERS... Will TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY! Right at 10 3/4" Top to Bottom and the Base Oval is 3 3/4" in Diameter. He almost seemed to talk to me....
As I looked into his glass eyes and actually the maker shows an expression on his face. Almost a must see to understand the IMPORTANCE of the ultimate condition for this period.
It is DIFFICULT to know the original maker and MOST OUR CONTINENTAL....
