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.
Thanks for the info, picking it up Monday. It still has the tag on it, will have to try to find out more about it.
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.
I'd like to see a pic if possible, How large are they?
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!)
Thank you, sir! I've never seen one.
Picked up statue, tag says I.S Spencers and sons Inc Guilford Conn. USA It was an old foundry around till the 1980's
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.
