| Can anyone help in id'g the brand & date of manufacture of a solid lead toy elephant? It is painted red, with it's trunk up and has a gold (altho with age it has darkened to bronze), black and red blanket with flowers on it. It weighs over 1 lb (453.592 g). It has no mark or signature anywhere on it. It is very heavy. They were purchased as a pair. I think it is an Asian or Indian elephant; I'm not sure if it part of a circus theme or was a transport or hunting elephant. Thanks! Tracy [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Welcome onf forum! I believe that this figure is not a toy figure but a kind of vintage decorative piece. It will turn very hard to identify it. These pieces often represent Indian elephants. :) |
