I got this at a garage sale this weekend and am totally baffled as to who or what it is. It's a small figurine of a man in robes, Asian I think, who is also wearing a hat with a feather ploom (sp). The robes are hand painted Light blue, dark blue and gold. I can also tell that because of natural age at the top of the hat there is a crack and I can see what looks like nails. also at the base one of the legs has cracked and I can see the nails come through all the way to the base. On the underside of the base in large letters the name starts with LIN--, the last two letters have been covered with some sort of plastic or wax. There is another line under the large letters but is unreadable accept for the last three letters which are RKE. Thanks for looking at this and helping me out.
