    Found this cute little (4" tall) wood carved gnome figure. Wondering where and when he was made. His pole is broken at the top and he has lost a bit of his nose, but still wondering about him. Not sure if he is depicting St. Nick with his bag filled on his back? Bottom of skis in pencil read 3915 II and Bfk saregt or sazeat?
    Thanks in advance!
