For your consideration we have a very cool vintage / antique painted cast iron lion or tiger head. This piece is large and heavy, weighing about 25 pounds. It has a place in the back where it would have been mounted somewhere. I cannot find any comparable items but the style and the mounting lead me to believe it was very possibly used in some circus or carnival of some sort. A super unique piece! In good vintage shape. The paint is still mostly intact. The back has one missing rivet where it would be mounted. Please see all photos for consideration as well. Measures about 10.5″ tall and 11″ wide. Thanks for looking and let me know if you have any questions!
