      The Raymond Library in Oakdale, CT has one too. You may ask them.

      Thanks. I have already sent an inquiry to the Library. Hopefully, they can help.

      The same bust was once also made of chalkware. They are better known as "Cigar Bust". They are marked "Copyright 1900 The Bailey Co." on back.

      I had seen the chalk version, but the marking is especially interesting since I live in Bailey, Colorado. Good information. Thanks.
