Small Inuit Carved Stone Weary Parent and Child banded glaze There's also a Beastie Boys

There's also a Beastie Boys reference embedded in it

made for the New York Wold’s Fair as an advertising giveaway for Bromo-Selzer

which I think might indicate that they were very early creations of the Kimble Class Co

I'd bet were made from the same piece of wood

that though in German I am confident is it American: it's author was a Johannes Knetz

Small Inuit Carved Stone Weary Parent and Child banded glaze There's also a Beastie BoysA wonderful and hugely empathetic feeling small Inuit carving, with child planted on the chest of a very weary looking parent, with, it appears, tiny features carved into the face of that baby as it faces forward into the world! Oh, onward we trudge. 2 7 8" t x 1 3 8" w x 1 7 16" d and in very good condition.
