Elie Nadelman Wooden Sculpture

I have found 2 wooden sculptures approx. 12 1/2" tall that are signed on the bottom "Elie". I'm wondering if these are sculptures by Elie Nadelman? I've found a couple of images of Elie Nadelmans signature on the Internet and some of the lettering resembles the signature on the bottom of these pieces.

The sculptures appear to be African in subject. The first, which I will post here, is an African man playing a congo drum. Would love to hear any ideas on this. I will also post a pic of the signature on the bottom.

Thanks,

Tom
