This is a really nice piece! And the fact that it was once owned by Frances Yeend makes it that much better.

I found on net " The Staffordshire figures of Boer War Generals, that came out in 1900, were the worst likenesses ever to be produced in ceramics." Actually I find this likeness the best of al of them. I really love the simple look almost like folk art of these Stafforshire figures.
WOW! These are really sought after pieces. Nice.
PhilDMorris, Yes, I saw that on line also. I think that there is a resemblance to the real character. Thank you for the comment!
truthordare,
I did have trouble finding any others for sale on line. Thank you for the comment!
