Item Description
3.5" dia. by 5.25" tall hollow white cast metal shows 9 famous KFS characters including Krazy Kat, Jiggs, Maggie, Barney Google, Pop, Hans, Abbie the Agent and we believe Jerry On The Job. Surface of base is stamped "King Features Syndicate Inc. 1926 - Polar Ark" (a reference to Byrd expedition). We are familiar with this same item having stamp of maker American Artworks, Coshockton, OH, but this does not have that designation. Silver accent luster is worn, mostly along base surface but o/w Exc. appearance. Great design. Limited issue, probably KFS executives' gifts to newspaper editors.
