Description
I bought this statue approximately 15 - 20 years ago. The gentleman who owned it previously passed away in his 80's, so I believe it is somewhat old, however, I do have one concern. Jocko is welded onto the base. I don't believe welding could have been around too long. So I guess it would have had to been made sometime after electricity.
