Date: copyrighted 1945, dates to then or a little later
Condition/Comments: A rare and beautifully designed antique back bar statue features a weathered old man in relaxed buy stylish clothes cradling a bottle of Old Brew. The statue is all original other than the cigar in the man's mouth (created/added later). There are some chips at edges and paint worn off in areas. The imperfections are consisten with its age and, arguably, add it its antique appeal.
