Antique Native American bookends. Titled: 'Awaiting the Prey'. They feature a NA with his hunting dog perched against a boulder. JB made this mold but I cannot find a JB mark on them so they could be another company or the mark wore off, and they are identical to the ones in the book. These are 6.5 tall x 5.25 long. They are hollow cast grey metal; one is missing most of the original gold tone finish; other one is okay. The darker one also has a tight split on backside which is fairly insignificant. It might be worth it to have a pro refinish these in a metallic antique bronze/gold color. They are really attractive despite the aging flaws. 11/11sant#
