[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 751003, member: 84"]I found this at a local thrift store today. I thought it was beautiful, but expensive ($49.95). When I asked the manager if he could do any better he offered it to me for 440 I agreed & bought it. I don't think it's meant to hang on a wall; the upper edge is slanted so it would slide off a nail. But it does stand up on it's own, so maybe it's a statue? It measures 16.5" tall x 12" wide. What is the handle on the back for? (there is a piece of paper there that I can't make out completely - maybe a auction number or collection number?) What kind of wood is it? Any idea of it's age? Thank you for any info; it is appreciated.
