Description
This is a very characterful model of a prize pig dating from the early 20th Century. Fashioned in the form of a heavy sow, the Gloucester Old Spot pig would have been a butcher's advertising piece, taking pride of place in the butchers shop window. The composite model captures the pig really well and she has a very endearing face. With a little wear to the paint this is otherwise in great condition and is a good size.
