Hi there everyone,
This is my first post on this site! And may I just say what a greatly informative site this is!
Anyway, I acquired this from a family friend amongst a load of stuff for the car-boot sale, but I thought this stood out as a nice item, so just wondered if anyone may know anything about it?
here it is:



it stands about 12" tall and is on a 4" square base ( though it's all one piece of wood ). It definately looks hand-carved to me, which made me think that it might hold some value?
Any advice/opinions and ideas as to its origin/value/saleability would be greatly appreciated!
Thankyou all in advance!

If it is not signed and there is no sign of where a label might have been it could be just a nice handcarved figurine. These are desirable especially if the show some type of occupation, this guy looks like he is moving a keg of some sort.

If I had it in the shop I would price it at $40 USD.

Thanks for sharing.
