Rare antique Cast Iron Polar Bear Tray or Paperweight, by CJO Judd Mfg Co.
This piece retains its original paint, is in outstanding older condition, and has the perfect amount of natural aged patina. This piece is unmarked except for the number "481".
In my research, I did find this same Judd polar bear design in a pipe rack, and a wall hook. 
Neither of those appeared to have original paints like mine does here.
You will not find another specimen like this one!
Really an excellent piece for both a collection and to use as functional decor in one's space.
Very minor wear may have the slightest possibility of being found...

This piece measures roughly 3.5" X 4.5"

DISCLAIMER:

 Please note - There are NO RETURNS unless there is a unique circumstance agreed upon between myself the seller, and you the buyer. Between all of my photos, detailed description, and your option to ask questions beforehand, there should be no discrepancy whatsoever in what it is that you are receiving. And I think you will sometimes find my pieces to be even better in person once you receive them! Check my feedback!!

 By bidding/winning an auction, or purchasing a piece BIN, you are committing to buying and accepting this piece as is!! Please do no ruin auctions for others, or take away other potential buyers chances to buy a piece they may want. It's a giant waste of time for everyone involved. So please make sure you are serious when bidding!!

 Can you go back to your local auction house and return pieces for a full refund after bidding everyone else out, winning, paying, and taking the piece home?? Or can you go into your local antique store and demand a full refund after holding onto or using a piece for 30 days?? The same normal everyday rational rules of human engagement apply here!! 

 Treasure hunting for you is how I pay the bills. It takes quite a bit of time to sell each piece from beginning to end; Searching for, procuring it, cleaning it up, researching, photography, all the middle parts you see when you are on eBay looking, then high quality thoughtful packing, shipping, etc.  

I am running a very small honest business, not an Amazon or Walmart. Most of my pieces are vintage or antique, and sometimes have the possibility of showing a little bit of character. I will always do my very best to disclose everything to my full ability.

Ask me anything you want!! I am easy to work with and here for you!!
