✅ SOLVED Need Some Help With A Lead Figure

[Natman]

Hi all,

Found this lead figure today in an 1890s house yard. Any help with time period of this piece or exactly what it is would be very much appreciated.

I had a couple of those almost like that one in 1952, I was 7 yrs old, I kept them for along time, but they just disappeared. Mine where cast iron and hollow.
Thanks for posting, brings back old times. Marioni

I would say early 1900. There's a couple of guys on here that know these things.

Natman, You have a "Cavalryman #486", made by Barclay toy company, circa 1930-1934. This figure was one of a group of early figures made by the Barclay company. When intact, it stood about 2 1/4" tall. The "Cavalryman #486" was the actual name of the figure in the early Barclay toy catalogs. Cheers! Sub
