[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 33688, member: 85"]I found a 6" one listed for $50. claiming it was a 1930s souvenir of Mt Vernon. True or not? Washington became the first president in 1789 - 100 years would be 1889. So possibly a centennial commemoration? Souvenir from Washington DC. Washington has always been a popular figure could be any reason. The fact that it is bronze rather than bronzed pot metal would bring the value up. I would think that the age would be late 1800s - to early 1900s. These are only my thoughts.[/QUOTE]
