Long Description
These Dutch girl bookends are very heavy and I think they're bronze. Not sure. Number 104 is marked (see pic) on the back of each one at the bottom right. I'd like to know how old they are and value as well as where they were made.
I just did a search at Google and found these bookends selling for $285.00 at paulmaddenantiques.com. They're a pair of antique cast brass DUTCH GIRL bookends circa 1920's. Attributed to BRADLEY & HUBBARD. So I feel pretty good that I only bought them for $30.00 a few days ago at a second-hand shop.
