Honest Abe in Profile, 19th Century Cast Iron Lincoln Relief sweet old carved dog Wonderfully constructedI've done a good bit of searching but can't find an exact likeness of this old iron Abe, or figure out exactly what purpose context he was made for; I would guess it was once one half of a whole, with a flip side to match. Whatever the case, definitely an old one, with great detail on the face, cast in relief, and with nice darkening to his cheek and brown and beard, in highest relief. 5 5 8" x 4 7 8" x 1 2". Good condition, nice patina, 19th century
