Hi everyone!!
I recently acquired this Hubley #454 cast iron Pekingese doorstop. I got this fellow for an amazing price due to the condition he was in when I got him. I was able to carefully clean and polish him and, once that was complete, his true beautiful colors finally came to life once again. Though he's experienced quite a bit of paint loss, he's still a very beautiful example. These are very difficult to find and they carry a very high value. Most sellers are asking $1000 plus for these, but I landed this one for much much less than that. Just a very lucky find for me.
This one was made by Hubley in the early 1900's. It measures 14" long, 9 3/4" tall and weighs in at more than 15lbs!!
Thanks very much for stopping in for a look!!
