    I've just bought this gorgeous man and know absolutely nothing about them. He is 3' tall.
    Does anyone know where I can find information about these old statues?

      Folk art calling card butler stand, hand painted. This was used to hold calling cards/business cards. There isn't any specific information on your butler figure.

      Here is a similar one:

      oh thank you Efesgirl, I'd love to find out about their history if you ever come across any. Also love ot know how to date mine. I believe it came from an old ladies house when she died and her family sent it to the op shop in our town.
