Antique figurine, old man playing fiddle figurine marked Forgein, bisque man playing violin, RARE antique man figurine, Morethebuckles
When we went to this estate sale this wonderful piece was in a hutch and the person running the sale, her grandson, said that it has been in there as long as he can remember, hence the age and the fact that this is in perfect shape. The details are amazing on him with no chips or breaks. Marked 2024 Foreign on the bottom, he measures 6 ½” high and the base is 2 ¾” by 2 ¾”.
The Congress of the United States passed the McKinley Tariff Act on October 1, 1890. It imposed tariffs on imports and demanded that the name of the country or origin be stamped or printed on items imported into the United States. Beginning in 1893, every item that was imported into the United States had to be marked "Foreign". Due to a revision in 1914, all items after 1923 had to be marked with a complete mark. If any item was not marked according to the law, it would be turned back at customs.
