1940-1949

This Vintage R.W. Baston Betsy Ross Figurine is a small ceramic figurine hand-painted in multicolor, depicting the famous historical figure Betsy Ross. Made in 1949, and over 75 years old, this patriotic and historical collectible features an all-over pattern with an American style finish. Exuding a sense of nostalgia from the late 20th century, this original figurine is perfect for any room and is a unique addition to any collection of decorative sculptures and figurines. Celebrate our nation’s 250th anniversary with one of the most recognizable figures in American history. Overall, the figurine is in excellent condition for its age; however, it does have several very minor areas of worn paint. So please look at the photographs carefully and contact me with any questions.

The 1949 Betsy Ross figurine was created by Prescott W. Baston, the renowned artist who founded Sebastian Miniatures in 1938.
