    Have you seen me?

    Still hoping to find some information on this red ceramic bull. I haven't been able to find one like him on-line. Perhaps someone can suggest a certain search area? 8" tall, 11" long. Bull has no hooves and a beautiful ceramic glaze with dark spots on his rump. There is a stamp behind the forelegs on his belly, but I can't make out the words.

    I'd be very happy to learn anything about this guy.

    Thank you,
    K

      See if you can take photo of the stamp and post it, as it is sometimes more visible when you crop and enhance the photo.

      Hello, I have taken a photo of the stamp, but it is very faint. I will post it, but I think only someone familiar with this stamp will be able to recognize it. I apologize if the picture is not of a high enough resolution, but in person, with my x-ray reading glasses and a magnifying glass, I can't make it out. Looks like three lines of letters. The second line is maybe: M A D D...looks like two more letters, then the last letter is Y. Maybe. :/

      Thank you all for your comments and for trying to help.

      Also, if it helps with the identification, his rump has glaze spots on it. The tips of his horns lighten to almost white. There is also some crazing under his belly, so maybe he's older than he looks?
