Anyone here have one of the brass savage/stevens statue/paperweight with the hunter holding a gun and a dog sitting at his feet??? wondering about the value and roughly when it was made. Thanks for any info.

I do. Made 1928 to ?. I have not seen them in print so probably given out as gifts. $250-350 range.
I have an extra I'd sell if anyone is interested.
Phil99 had an ash tray base that had a place for the man and dog to set but without the screw holes drilled. Probably a design sample that was not used.

Keep me posted if you learn anything more about them.
The "SVG" was not used till 1927-28 so sometime after that and probably before the war. Looks more shotgun related than rifle. I've only seen a half dozen or so...not common.

Here's one that has been listed online for sale for at least 6 years, maybe even 10 or more, asking price is $450 - (If anyone is interested at that price I would be glad to give you the link!)

Since it still has the tag, is it in great condition?

Yes, its real nice, not perfect has a little patina, more shine to it than the one in the pic on this post. Would rather have a shooter grade 'T' or 'RT' in the safe, but the statue looks nice enough on the shelf.
