    It’s 10.25” tall and wide and roughly 4.5” deep. Weight is 7 lbs and 9oz. I can’t find any markings, but what I’ve read says this has a lot of the right markings. Wondering what others think...

      Nice Boston Terrier! It has all of the right features, with the exception of the exposed screw head (most were concealed and painted over). Some of these were unmarked, but judging by the measurements it could very well be a Hubley. National Foundry and Albany Foundry also manufactured a Boston Terrier doorstop. I have at least one from each foundry , in both "Right" facing and "Left" facing. Nice find!

      Thank you jscotto363, its been in my wives family for a long time and her mom has tasked me with moving it to a "new home via an online agent". There is what appears to be filler lodged in the flathead of the screw so it was probably damaged at some point and fell out, which left the screw head uncovered.
