by Marvel, c.1922.
This mascot won first prize in 1922 Salon de l’ Auto, Paris. Other examples exist depicting one chained bulldog, in two sizes. This is the rarest example of all. To find the original chains still intact after 76 years have passed is a miracle, and to actually find such a superb signed example after a 30 year search is a great celebration. G.C. foundry stamping. MP327, WW610.
