Description

Just curious on the value of these stautes and if they are real. Thank you =)

Not sure about the statues of the children. They don't have any tags or markings. Unlike the 2 Indian looking statues, which are clearly from ABCO.

Does anyone know anything about these statues? I haven't been able to find much info on them.

The red and black statues look like ABCO (Alexander Backer Co, NY) chalkware Blackamoor figures. The ones I have seen usually sell in the $20-$40 (pair) range.
