HUBLEY EARLY 20TH CENTURY AMERICAN
ANTIQUE BLACK, WHITE & RED ENAMEL DECORATED, CAST IRON FRENCH BULLDOG
PUPPY FIGURATIVE DOORSTOP, featuring
ORIGINAL PAINT & REDRESSED RED ENAMEL PAINT FOUND on the NOSE & MOUTH,
as well as INNER EARS, with MINOR to
MODERATE EPISODES of PAINT LOSS, DUE to PREVIOUS USE & WEAR & TEAR
[Found on the South Shore of Massachusetts, south of Boston, MA in the Duxbury, MA area. The cast iron doorstop remains 100%, absolutely untouched & remains as it was when found in the home it was removed from, along with another similar French Bulldog puppy cast iron doorstop. Both enjoy largely all original enamel painted surfaces & only this enamel painted cast iron doorstop appears to have at some previous point in time, been redressed with red enamel paint on the dog's mouth, nose & inner ears. We haven't touched either doorstop. ]
