Something has broken off that the old man was holding (maybe a pipe -- see last photo). I'm wondering if anyone has seen anything similar, knows how old it is and who made it. It's marked 19 or 79 EE inside. I haven't been able to find anything like it online. I'm afraid to clean it because a lot of paint has already flaked/chipped off. Any information would be appreciated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
