Figurine of a sailor (often called an Old Salt figurine) made by Syroco Wood. A bit of the original tag remains on the bottom. I believe these were made in the 1940s. They used a molded wood-pulp material to be able to craft detailed pieces that have the look of carved wood. This guy seems to have a fair amount of paint loss (unless they were made that way--I can't say for sure) but that gives him a nice vintage patina. Measures 6" tall. Smoke- and pet-free home.
