    Hello everyone!!
    You probably saw the cast iron fox head paperweight that posted earlier. Here is a cast iron rabbit paperweight that I found at the same time I found the fox. This one also is from the mid to late 1800's. It still retains most of it's original paint. Paperweights were very commonly used during that period as were desktop cast iron paper clips, which I have yet to acquire due the prices being a bit out of my budget. . Nothing really special about this one, but it is cute. It measures 4 3/4" tall, the base is 2" in diameter and it weighs in at 1lb 9oz.

    Thanks very much for stopping in for a look!!
    Scott

      Thanks Eileen!!
      He's very old indeed. I can spot a great cast iron piece from a mile away. I love them and they seem to call out my name when walk past them:)
