Presented for sale is a heavy, Antique Boston Terrier Doorstop dating to the early-to-mid 20th century. This is a high-quality "Period Piece" executed in the Hubley style, featuring a solid sand-cast construction and an impressive weight of over 5.5 lbs.
The dog is captured in a classic alert stance with an excellent original cold-painted finish. The surface shows wonderful "alligatoring," honest paint loss, and a deep, naturally aged patina that only comes with decades of use. This variant features the "left ear high" casting, characteristic of quality contemporary foundries of the era. It is a substantial, authentic piece of Americana that would anchor any cast iron or canine collection.
