    As previous one, this little boy belonged to my grand-parents (as far as 1930!).

    Ivory lines are present but less obvious due to the part of the tusk he's carved from.

    He carries a bag as big as him and is eating a treat :-)

    Signature on the bottom oh his bag, the sole of his shoes showing even the nails!

    Dimensions: height 1.3/8" base length 1.5/8".

    He is ravishing to handle! :-)
