Description

I have a hippo figurine that was passed to me from a lady who was Mrs Rockefeller's in-home hairdresser for 14yrs, in Arkansas. It is marked on the bottom with an "M" surrounded by what is maybe a crown or sun symbol. It has several other markings (see photos), as well as the Rockefeller's personal inventory label. I'm curious about its value.
