HERMAN CHALK BACK BAR STATUE
THIS IS HERMAN. THE OLD GERMAN BEER ADVERTISING ICON FROM THE EARLY 50'S TO ITS PRESENT DAY USE BY THE PITTSBURGH BREWING CO. THIS BACK BAR STATUE,( FROM 1952),IS ALMOST 16" TALL AND ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER BACK BAR STATUES EVER MADE. BE PREPARED TO DROP AT LEAST $500 TO ACQUIRE THIS BEAUTY, THAT IS IF YOU CAN FIND ONE IN DECENT CONDITION. I HAVE SEEN ONLY A COUPLE IN THIS GOOD CONDITION. THE OTHERS I HAVE SEEN ARE CHIPPED, CRACKED, COVERED WITH SMOKE STAINS FROM BARS, AND EVEN COMPLETELY REPAINTED A DIFFERENT COLOR!

THESE ARE THE TWO VARIATIONS OF THE OLD EXPORT WATERFALL STATUE. THE ONE ON THE LEFT IS THE OLDER OF THE TWO. DATING FROM THE LATE 50'S? AND THE ONE ON THE RIGHT IS FROM 1960.
SMALL BACK BAR STATUES
THE ONE ON THE LEFT IS AN OLD EXPORT STATUE. 3" HIGH AND 12" LONG FROM 1960. THE "L" IS MISSING FROM THE WORD "OLD". THE MIDDLE ONE IS THE LUCKY GUY STATUE ALSO FROM 1960.

THERE IS A RARER CHALK VERSION THAT HAS DIFFERENT WRITNG ON THE BASE AND IS ABOUT AN INCH TALLER.
