Object No. 2


This is an interesting piece of blacksploitation I found in a junk store. I usually have a pretty good eye for dating things, but he is a mystery. He is made of nice crockery, mold formed I would suppose and painted. There is a small opening on top.  He may have survived a fire at some point. He is a bit larger than a softball and nice to hold. I love his Buddha quality and he makes a fine mate for the lady cup. Anyone have clues to his origins?
