Hi all,

This was found in a dump pit in New England with other items found being from the late 1880s to early 1900s. Any clue what this might be?

Thanks!

Looks kind of like the Cracker Jacks Sailor without his hat. Or Elvis.

What about them claws and cowboy boots? You know,there was one very similar to that on here a while back that I believe was IDed as a Cracker Jack prize.That one seems to have some additional parts added.

The hair looks rather curly and the lips wide..wondered if It was ethnic related…

I thought it looked like he was wearing shoes, knee socks…the kind held up with buckles…and knicker type pants?

After a second look I do believe you,re right!

Tap Dancer?

Looks like a latch to something. Maybe.

 

[Back-of-the-boat]

A door knocker, lock hasp combo, as for the figure I don't know. I agree it does look ethnic.

when I look at the backside of the thing, I think can puncher bottle opener combo

A custom made lever for something.

This one is certainly a challenge. Have you tried to make a paper rubbing of this figure? That might help clear up the details from the background. I've been trying to look at individual items of clothing. Shoes look 1800s, maybe earlier? I have seen depictions of soldiers and people of higher social status wearing those baggy pants with stripes or ribbed stitching. Really looking forward to this ID. Looks like it was cast and then welded to the ring and "hasp", so there are likely to be others if that's the case.

Maybe a coachman or footman or valet?

Thanks. I was with the woman who found this, so I can ask for a rubbing for details. I was curious why the handle looking part had grooves in it too.

It's the handle from a three decanter tantalus honoring Bo Diddly?

RIP Bo - I hope you are eating turkey.
