<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mungo, post: 571165, member: 10050&quot;]Pick from an estate sale this morning.&nbsp; These were advertised as Bruno Merli &quot;Capodimonte&quot;.&nbsp; They do indeed say &#039;Bruno&#039; on the front, and they do looks kindof capo-ish, so I thought nothing of it.&nbsp; But after getting home and getting on the google machine, I cannot find any Bruno Merli figurines signed in any fashion except a &#039;B Merli&#039; impression.&nbsp; So I&#039;m stuck now trying to figure out exactly what these things are.&nbsp; The only copy I can find of one of these is an ebay listing and the guy seems as clueless as I am.&nbsp; </p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Capodimonte-Or-Alike-BRUNO-IN-GOLD-CERAMIC-OLD-MAN-PLAYING-CELLO-antique-vintage/254167806579" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Capodimonte-Or-Alike-BRUNO-IN-GOLD-CERAMIC-OLD-MAN-PLAYING-CELLO-antique-vintage/254167806579" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/Capodimonte-Or-Alike-BRUNO-IN-GOLD-CERAMIC-OLD-MAN-PLAYING-CELLO-antique-vintage/254167806579</a></p><p><br /></p><p>So I&#039;m stuck looking for &quot;Bruno&quot; marks and this ghost of a foil tag on the bottom of one of my figurines.&nbsp; Looks like a cobalt blue silver rimmed foil tag.&nbsp; The visible bit on the sticker looks like a piece of an Iron Cross.</p><p>Any ideas? Maybe its very atypical early or late Bruno Merli stuff?&nbsp; Maybe junk?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]173197[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]173198[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
