Much of Paint looks Original. From Antique Collector's Estate. (Lantern in Pictures Not Included). Tough to beat the look of this gem. We are pricing this piece well under last sale due to the different base.
It is getting harder to find these older versions. We think much of the paint is original (possibly pants, shirt & cap), but vest, tie & face may have been repainted.This model was made in the 1860's to 1899 according to Lawn Jock websites, but best date on this may be after 1870 from our research, but cannot be 100% sure. Jockey is bolted to concrete slab, but could be reattached to other if you chose. We took multiple pictures for your consideration. He is very solid, but there is some separation in seams (along arm) that appear to have been from original casting of piece, but they do not effect overall appeal of item and are solid, not loose. Jockey is mostly cast iron, but cap appears to be heavy tin or other alloy as it does not take to a magnet.
This prevents cap from rusting, but it was most likely done for casting reasons. We shot with railroad lantern for appeal and display, the lantern is not included in sale. No charge up to 30 miles.
