Does anyone want to post pics of their rarest or most coveted figurals? This can include Statues, Trophies, Banks, Bookends, etc. |

I've never seen that piece before Mark. It may be one of a kind. Here are a couple of my favorites. |

A few more, just to throw some "figural" ideas out there! Would love to see some other gems... thanks! |

Mike: Those are all beautiful pieces, but that D & M Trophy is drop-dead gorgeous! Looks every bit as attractive as any of the "Spaldings"! |

Love the cubbies stuff Mark. That catcher on the top shelf is fantastic! I've never seen anything like it. The face mask and the workman glove and the color are perfect late 1800s. Where in the world did you find it? Here is another I posted recently. |

Here's a few of mine. The Tiger one came from Ralph Winegarner's estate. The baseball player head comes from a bigger carnival statue. I'd really like to have a complete one if anyone know where one is. |

Rob, I guess lucky for both of us it was produced for Wichita and not Cleveland. You won't have to try and find one now. This is the only one I've ever seen. It has a Wichita Indians decal on it. Thanks for the compliment. |

Rob, Mr. Ruocco had a heart attack about 2 weeks ago. Luckily he made it to the hospital and no damage occured. I wouldn't have half the collection or knowledge if it wasn't for him. |

Great pieces, Clint! I just love the Tiger and the Indian... there is also a Pirate just like these. I still regret selling it about 5 years ago. It was much rarer than I thought. |

Believe it or not I just beat out veangregg (Seattle collector) on an ebay item last night. I think that might be a first for me. |

Thanks Mark, I'm glad you found the site. I've never seen the Pirate before but have seen another Tiger on ebay a few years back. Wow, you have some nice trophys and figurines. I love that cub on the bat iron figure. |

Love that Goldsmith Trophy, Max. Those figural baseballs on the sides are just terrific. Can you imagine that pride of workmanship existing today? |

I am not sure if these are figurals or not, but here are 2 of my Gibbs Connor NFL banks. |

Keith: Those are prime examples of figural pieces. This is an under-appreciated (and under-valued) segment of the hobby. I really love both of those... especially the Eagle. It's great that those old Gibbs Conner Prototypes have miraculously made it into the hobby. |

Those are fabulous pieces Mark. I hadn't seen that Browns one before. You're right, the Brownie stomping the Lions head is classic. |

I have no idea who made these or how long ago...they are carved out of wood and stand about 18" tall. |

Although the only "figural" aspect of this trophy is the cup itself, I still like it. It was presented to Elmer Flick by the Bedford Golf Club in 1914 and is inscribed: 27 G.C. EXPERT TROPHY Jan-June 1914 B*G*C Cup Won by Elmer Flick Stands about 6.5 inches tall. Picked it up at the National. (Sorry for the poor image) |
