Railroad Boxcar eagle

Hello all,

I would appreciate some expert opinions on this one. A cast piece?

William: Do you know the size? I see the maker mark is GPH. I am far from being an expert but I don't like it. The front looks really weak. Hopefully you hear from JR on this one.

I have not and I wish I could find out as the time to make or break the deal is here.

William: Here's my GPH I got from JR. Hope this helps.

Hello again,

Here's what Jr. had to say about it:

" It is a period 24" example of a GPH eagle. The studs have been cut down obviously and the chain added to facilitate the hanging of this eagle. Certainly the chain looks old and perhaps was done during the period. "

Congratulations William,
Glad to hear it is original.

I'm glad JR took a look at this. I hope you are able to pick this one up, William.
