Don't know much about this category but I bought this from a trustworthy and knowledgeable dealer I have know for many years. � He guaranteed this to be late 19th century. � I will say 1880 - 1910 just to be safe.It is a man/driver of either a buggy or some other horse-drawn vehicle. � I cannot tell if it was ever painted - it might have been black although it looks like the original natural finish to me. � I believe this is the original finish. � His features are exceptional. � Great definition in his face, his clothes and even the heels of his shoes. � � � The two sides are held together with a rivit. � It has a great patina. � Condition is as found and as shown. � I would say excellent. � He is about 3&1/4" from the top of his hat to his feet. � He has a 1/4" pole that sits in the seat of whatever he drove. � The width of the pole is about 1/8." � He actually fits perfectly in the fire hook and ladder I am selling but he has a bowler hat and tie on so I doubt he originally drove a fire truck. � Please check out a 19th or 20th century sulky and a 19th century fire hook and ladder truck from the same source. � US ship only. � Thanks for looking!
