    Hi all. Picked this up thinking California pottery or the like,but so far Ive been unable to match it. Theres some writing on the bottom but I cant figure it out. I thought it said "Atlantic mold" ? Is this just a hobbyist piece. She is 9x5 . The writing is very faint,thats the best I could do.Thank you for any input.

    Johnny, I do think it's a paint and glaze-it-yourself mold. Atlantic Mold is the company that made so many of those 1970's Christmas trees that folks finished at their local ceramics studio - like this one:

    I didn't locate any exactly like yours, but if you look at other Atlantic Mold figurines being sold, they all seem to be finished differently, and with different levels of proficiency. For instance:

    Yours, at least, has a very sweet face! What song does it play?
