Description -- Item # 21001321

Super Bowl great freeze-frame action. “The Tackle”, made Art Deco era circa 1925, featuring one football player tackling another player carrying the football; each is wearing an old-fashioned leather football helmet.

This listing is for ONE bookend only; it could also be used as a coffee table figurine or sculpture, desk paperweight, or statuette on the mantle.

An "L" shaped bookend, most likely made by the Pompeian Bronze Company or the Armor Bronze Company, a single vintage bronze-clad (electroformed bronze ‘skin’ over a plaster core) figural book end with original polychrome paint (red, very dark cyan or blue-black, and black). On the back: "THE TACKLE". Rare, not even listed in Kuritzky and De Costa.

SPECS: Measures about 7.2" tall by about 5.0" by 2.6", and weighs in at 2 lbs 9 oz. Original paint and patina in good condition considering its age, see the photos. No breaks or tears in the bronze cladding.
