Antique collectible black souvenir. Germany. bisque figure on🐚 . rare.Americana
Antique hand-painted bisque porcelain dark figurine commonly categorized as …..B.I.a.c.k…. American(a)’memorabilia’ or novelty souvenir memorabilia. This specific piece features a young colored boy holding a 🍉 slice(color has faded due to age), seated on a throne decorated with real 🐚 . The attached shell plaque at the base reads “Souvenir Ironwood Michigan”. The ‘Ironwood’ has started to fade as well due to age. Fabulous piece of antique history from the jim. crow. era. & Segregation days. Has no damage, chips, etc other than the watermelon color faded & Ironwood wording fading. It is stamped underneath with a signature or makers mark i haven’t been able to identify. Thanks
