Item Specific : Here I offer you an absolute original Spencer Foundry Wedge Boston Terrier Doorstops. This one is the brown (also known as’red’,’seal’,’brindle’) version, it also comes in black and white and the famous’Spencer Green’ (also pictured from the collector’s guide book) as well as’Spencer Orange’. Certain colors were associated with Spencer so you can have fun looking to collect them all. It does not have foundry marks since many times it was just a paper label, which was just commonplace for Spencer Foundry. It does however have that signature dinosaur-like worn bump wedge. I is in really lovely aged condition, be sure to look close at all pictures. This is from the cast iron heyday era lasting from the turn of the century into the 1930’s and is in the collector’s guides. There is no structure damage that I see but please use the zoom tool to be double sure I have not overlooked anything important or unimportant in my observations. Completely stable, meaning, no parts are missing or have ever been glued back on and there is no evidence of repair. Finish is appropriate as well as texture for a makers typical materials; Paint or patina is guaranteed to be original and untouched. Please use the photo’s as the most important part of the description for size, maker and marks, as well as all aspects of condition. Weight is shown in photos and a soda can is 5 tall. How lucky would you be to have a chance at owning’a one in a million’ type of investment collectible? ! All my listings are basically the same from here down. How can something so’durable’ be so’rare’? Many victorian and turn of the century cast iron and metal figural items are rare or completely lost because of wartime efforts that took place for nearly half of the last century. During the Great War, World War II and beyond, there were constant neighborhood drives to collect all non-essential cast iron and metal goods. These items were then melted down for their materials to help with the manufacturing for our wars necessities and armament. In regards to toys, well, toys were just that, toys. They got used hard and thrown away. So that’s why if you find one, you should consider it a prize, and if you are a serious collector, you probably consider it priceless. To Collector’s these figural are basically time capsules of a bygone era, wearing their beautiful battered and worn paint proudly, and have intense historical value as authentic artistic creations of this counties industrial age pioneer heroes. That said, items that or broken, missing parts, or repainted, even beautifully, can ruin an items investment value. Also, having no investment value at all are the current pieces being recreated overseas. The Business : Since I find these little treasures everywhere from thrift stores to estate sales and everyplace in between, I can not verify the origin of many pieces. All of my items will come to you in fresh, clean and safe packaging. More than likely, I will not have cleaned the items; Antiques Roadshow cautions not to clean so many different things therefore I will leave that up to you. Regardless of an items weight, some things require a larger box than what seems initially necessary so the proper protective wrappings can fit to insure your items safe arrival. My mission is to sell the things I have more than one of and other knick-knacks I discovered along my way, even tearfully part with the rarest of rare pieces to fund life’s ongoing adventures. I always leave feedback once I have received yours, this way I know your product made it into your waiting happy hands.
