Item:145675378183Antique Majolica Palmer Cox 1892 Brownies' Policeman 8.25". Beneath it are impressed numbers 28 and 89. (See photos). The one chip is beneath the officer's hat. The other is just under his base. I also did not know that the hole on top of his cap made him a candlestick--I guess he did not carry a flashlight way back then. An antique (1889) 8.25 inch majolica Palmer Cox Brownie figurine/candlestick as a British Police Officer. Beneath it are impressed numbers 28 and 89. Glossy finish with two small chips that are only visable beneath him. (See photos). The one chip is beneath the officer's hat. The other is just under his base. He carries a billy club and is standing on a rock.My asking price has taken these chips in consideration. I thought I knew a lot about antique toys and figurines, but I had never heard of this 1800s' Canadian illustrator, his books, dolls, advertising for Lion's Coffee until I obtained this funny British police officer. I also did not know that the hole on top of his cap made him a candlestick--I guess he did not carry a flashlight way back then. I bought him in a group of small vintage and antique figurines--which I will list throughout this week. I put him in my tiny shop because he is whimsical and funny. I will ship safely and insured.
