    Hey all this is my first post. I have this old carved wooden trinket box and trying to determine if this is Lenin on the box. Sure looks like it is but any input would be welcome. Thank you

    I think the odds are fairly good - hairline and beard seem right.

    Is there anything on the box that suggests it's Russian?

    The mustache is a bit shaggy, but otherwise looks good.

    There is no stamp or anything that suggest where it was made. But a couple more etchings on the side. Looks like some sheep and man playing a flute and a couple of men standing up rowing a raft it looks like. Sorry trying to upload more pics but everything I try and upload says its too big.

    I figure it is thanks. Although not a great rendering.

    I wonder if the "artist" didn't end in the Gulag. doesn't look Lenin to me.
    could even be Otto von Bismarck on his deathbed.
