I'm sorry, I thought you saw my earlier post with the dimensions: The size is 9" tall with a 6" x 6.5" base, and weighs 2 lb. 13 oz. The holes...
Here's a photo of the inside and a closeup of the "TF" mark you mentioned. The crack at the edge looks like something that happened when it was...
It wouldn't work for cigarettes unless they're extra long. I looked up the typical length of a cigarette (3 1/4") and cut a few drinking straws to...
I'll post a photo tomorrow. It's hollow inside, up to whatever he's sitting on.
The hat looks like it was there originally. If by "bald" spot you mean the light-colored area behind his left foot, I looked at it with a...
Now that you mention desk accessory, could the holes be there to hold wax sticks for seals? Back in the olden days was the wax heated with a...

Now that I look more closely, it does look like an old restaurant soup bowl. Thank you so much, Sandra, for your information.
I'm clearing out my garage and will be asking for help from the experts here before I sell some things I bought years ago. I bought this bowl at a...
