I have these 4 sets of chalk ware character heads. They measure aprox. 20" long and are mounted to hang. Some have damage but a couple are in pretty good condition. I have done some research but have come up blank. Any information on these would be appreciated. Thanks!
very nice I have seen these as single heads but not all attached ! Bosson made chalkware heads like yours but much more detail . I have a few that were made by a ceramic co and are marked .
Look at these

Theyre so weird !! I love them , they look like the old meerschaum clay pipe faces!!
really cool !
These are great. I also have some I picked up years ago and could never find info on them. Thanks for sharing and thanks Manikin for the link....
I'm just wondering if they were for keeping something in between each head...like a rack of some sort.. would they big enough for that?....:-)
