Hi Everyone:
Found this neat Piece of Chalkware made by LEGENDWARE ( England ). Raised 3D image on it. It still has its original label on the back. Few chips on it -- but then it is Chalkware....and Chalkware is kinda just like Chalk and it is fragile. Neat that it says CANADIAN INDIAN CHIEF. Great Cross-over Collectible:
~ Vintage Souvenir item
~ Made of Chalkware
~ Not politically correct anymore
~ and a Form of Advertising
I just thought it was a great piece with the Subject matter as I can not seem to find another (yet) on the Net. I would think this is maybe from the 1950's or the 1960's era.
Thanks for LOOKING / LOVING !! Any other info Welcomed !!!

I love these types of Chalkware pieces Rosie! What I find so cool is the 3D effect as the images seem to pop from the background... I have a couple that I need to post... one of these days :)
