Just picked this up at a yard sale ....I have been trying to find out how old it is and who made it. Its 10 inches tall and heavy..I think it might be by Hubley...Any help would be great...Thanks

What size is he ? He looks like a Hubley to me also . These door stops have been massively reproduced to look old . He seems right as a true vintage one but something a person needs to hold in their hands I would think to determine age . Very nice find !!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Manikin ...its 10 inches tall ....
While to my eyes he looks like a early 1900's Hubley maybe these guidelines will help you . I vote authentic on your's hopefully someone else chimes in on this and feels the same as I do .

I have one also
I'm going with a reproduction. The casting is rough and is hand painted with modern paint.
Still a fun piece.
