[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 4289653, member: 51"]Have no idea where to begin with this, but I couldn't leave it at the thrift for $6. I realize this might not be tribal in origin, but didn't know where else to post it. It is signed/dated in the back "Dylan SW? MW?" (not totally sure about the letters) and "1980", it's a fairly heavy piece of wood... 7lbs. Measures approx 13" high. Honestly it's almost the size of a real head, just a bit smaller. Would this be something that was mass produced in any way? Studio or tourist piece? Some crafter? It seems to have some quality, but honestly that's all I got. So looking for general comments, just to get me started on my search. Or if anyone can find anything remotely similar, please link. Thanks!

I noticed it at the thrift but decided it was still an interesting piece at the price.
