    This guy is on top of a cane, so I am assuming he is someone of importance. There are no makers marks anywhere on the piece. Anyone recognize him?

      Off the top of my head I would say Sigmund Freud, just guessing.

      I was going to guess the Beefeater Gin man without his hat. I love the thing. I am stuck using a cane to get around now days and this looks like it could work as a self defense item if needed. If the head is solid it would sure put someone to sleep.

      Someone said its Benjamin Harrison, and there are a lot of similar Harrison canes out there.

      Unfortunately the head isn't solid! It's actually fairly light.
