Perfect for any Cat Lover - as Bookend, Garden, or Doorstop.  (Or a unique Halloween Decoration.)  This is the REAL THING!  Antique "Cast Iron Doorstop" from 1920's/1930's, donated to H2O Planet from an Estate Sale.  Immaculate condition (and almost 100 years old).  This adorable Kitty will last forever: it weighs 4 pounds (yes, it's vintage "Old Cast Iron") and is 6 inches high x 5.5 inches wide.  Its paws will hold a door, watch over your garden, or prop up your favorite books (or just add a touch of whimsy to your home).  We believe it is an original HUBLEY Manufacturing Company Doorstop. 

Decorative Cast Iron Doorstops (particularly animal figures of cats) gained popularity in the early 1900's, with a peak production in the 1920's (and ending with World War II, when the iron was needed for war).  With the advent of Air Conditioning and Heating in the 1950's, Cast Iron Doorstops stopped being produced all together (with Hubley Manufacturing closing in 1948).  Please see photos: you can see the "seam" along the back and the screws, to document the Authenticity and Age.  Item can be shipped nationwide to Winning Bidder (with insurance) or picked up for FREE in Enfield, CT.  Unique Gift for any Cat Lover!  (And cutest thing in our Auction.)
