Garage Sale seller said this was "Mussolini" I think its is Stalin. ID help?

I got this at a sale for $8.00. The lady said it is" Mussolini". I think it is Joseph Stalin. Any ideas? I think $8.00 was reasonable. Any thoughts as to value? Thanks

Certainly doesn't look like Musolini. I agree with you. What's on the back?

The back is completely blank.

Can't confirm who it IS...but, it's not Mussolini.

Definitely not Mussolini.

I don't think it is Stalin, either. I've never seen a pic of Stalin with a mustache like that. If it were Stalin, I'd think the hammer and sickle would be featured on the flag.

It don't look like either one to me................

That looks like an olive branch, symbol of peace. I am with the crowd that says that is not stalin.

It looks like Stalin to me. I have seen a few pics of his beard, that was "Close" to that

It's not Mussolini, but he is Italian... It's Sal Monella

At first I thought so too, but after seeing more pictures it changed my mind. Unless someone took some artistic license with the jawline and nose. And the hair, he was bald when he got older.
