This is a pottery head of a football player. It is a strong and expressive piece of folk art sculpture. It measures 8" high by 6 1/2" wide by about 6" deep, and is of unknown age, but it is old. It is solid, not hollow, and very heavy. The condition is fair: part of the face guard on the helmet is missing, and there is minor flaking on the surface. In spite of this, it is a vivid folk art portrait with great "presence". The price is $375.00. Inventory Code: TACK. Pottery football player ... Another view ... One side ... The other side ...

This is an unusual bottle whimsey which contains a deck of cards with two bolts through it, and a pair of pliers which had to be reassembled inside the bottle. The bottom flap of the card box is folded under so that you can see all the cards are still in the box. The bottle is about 9" high and 2 3/4" in diameter. It is relatively recent, having been made in a Sobe bottle. Still, it is a very interesting and clever construction. It is in excellent, sturdy condition. The price is $145.00. Inventory Code: TTRS.
