    Does anybody recognize who exactly he is?? I haven't a clue. <beg>

    He stands 16-1/2" tall on a roughly 5-1/4" square base and is made of some sort of ceramic with a bronzed glaze/appearance. (white clay inside, according to a couple fleabite chips)

    The sculptor/artists signature and logo are on one side of the base (pic 4) looking like "Harry (or Hany?) A Kallish", but I'm not sure I'm reading it correctly

      I think it is Harry. There is reference on the net to an illustrator named Harry A. Kallish. The surname might be an anglicised version of a Polish name.
