Cold Painted Bronze Nodding Child with Cigar, Trade Stimulator circa 1890

About the Item

A really novel cold painted bronze of a nodding boy smoking a cigar, I'm told these were used as trade stimulators often selling matches, just the slightest breeze or movement gets him nodding his head in a very realistic manner.
