Extremely extremely rare one of the first ones, Jeff Fleming ever made back in Manhattan, Montana, USA. This is an old piece, so please be aware. There are some cracking I seen in the pictures but nothing to wear. It’s coming apart or nothing terrible like that. It does have some cracks from age. This particular one has the extremely rare snout with the head with a tiny little black snout so different to the other ones that you see that were later made. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think this is very early and very very rare. Incredibly, it still has the original tag and the original eyes. This is all original we have not cleaned or touched up. This was found at the estate sale up in the mountains near Lake Tahoe. Yes, yes it’s weathered and has some cracks as you can see, but this is all original and super super rare. We think the stand has been added as it has the newest screws, but we do not want to take off or will sell it as it is with the stand complete size with the stand. It’s just a little over 20 inches. He is just so adorable. We can’t make out if the eyes are plastic or glass, but they are definitely original to the piece. He is quite heavy, and his face is absolutely adorable cutest face in town. Here’s approximately just over 20 inches tall and the largest widest point from his hands to his back is approximately 8 inches so he’s quite a showstopper. What’s absolutely wonderful is he is very very old and early. You just don’t find these old wooden ones anymore. Thank you so much for looking. Enjoy this beautiful beautiful, rare peace. We are open to offer.
This limited edition sculpture, titled “The Captains” by Rick Terry, depicts historical explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. Designed by Big Sky Carvers in Manhattan, Montana in 1999, this piece is an early casting numbered 20 out of a standard limited run of 2450. Please note that while designed in the United States, physical manufacturing of this specific product line was outsourced internationally, making this an imported collectible. This piece was cast using Big Sky Carvers’ proprietary “Montana Bronze” process, a premium cold-cast composite blending fine bronze, copper, and pewter metal powders with a polymer binder. This construction gives the statue a heavy, authentic foundry weight and finish, mounted securely on a solid oval wood base. It retains its original Big Sky Carvers maker’s label and original retail pricing sticker on the underside. Maker/Artist: Rick Terry / Big Sky Carvers. Subject: Lewis & Clark (The Captains).
