    I believe Hubley door stops were reproduced but how do you tell? This flower basket door stop measures 5 1/4" tall x 4 1/4" wide. Front -back just shy of 3 1/4". Should I remove the rubber pad to see if it is marked? Excuse the cat hair.

    I cannot find an "original" that matches your design?

    Dunno but very 1980s colorway.

    I guess, I can clarify now and say I could not find a Hubley doorstop with the same design. So, it is probably not a repo from Hubley!

    I had found some larger ones almost identical that were supposedly Hubley online is the reason I asked.

    Thank you. That one is a match. Unfortunately I don't see an asking price. I'll look at their Etsy shop to see if it is listed there.

    Hi,
    You see the brown rust on the bottom edge of your piece? If it was the "older" one it would be black instead of brown. Red or brown rust means newer. Black rust is Ferrous Oxide new rust is Hydrated Ferric Oxide.

    Fascinating. How often is a mystery solved with duplicate item in original box? Avon 2000. And will remember tip on rust color.
