Proud Collie, c. 1930s-40s Painted Folk Art Cutout on Base miniature workbench clinical looking dark green box

clinical looking dark green box with silvery white print and one initial--"A" for automobile in this case

clearly full of affection for one another

Part of what I think makes it great is its utter impracticality--this thing weighs about 10 pounds

Clipped left corners as evident

what really makes this photo for me the is the presence of the second dancer

Proud Collie, c. 1930s-40s Painted Folk Art Cutout on Base miniature workbench clinical looking dark green boxSo handsome! Feels like the embodiment of pride and loyalty in perfect proportion to one another, too. And perfect aging to that creamy white paint. C. 1940s I believe and not a doorstop, just a cutout mounted to wooden base, painted on both sides. I'd situate him near the front door waiting patiently to welcome one home! 8 1 4" x 2 3 8" x 6 3 4" t. Good condition, with one minor spot of paint loss to one side of the green base.
