IN ADDITION TO SHOWING AMAZING COURAGE, THE BRITISH PEOPLE FOUND THE STOIC ABILITY TO HUMOROUSLY MOCK THEIR SITUATION AS CAUSED BY THE NAZI LEADER. THIS EXTREMELY SCARCE SCULPTURAL ART PORTRAIT BOOKENDS PORTRAYS THE OPTIMISTIC ATTITUDE OF A STREET CLEANER HOLDING A BROOM, WHOSE JOB IT WAS TO SWEEP UP THE STREET RUINS THAT GERMAN BOMBING RAIDS PRODUCED IN LONDON AND ELSEWHERE EVERY DAY FOR MONTHS. THESE STATUETTE ARTISTIC W.W. II ERA BOOKENDS EACH MEASURE A WONDERFUL DISPLAY SIZE: 7 3/4 " HIGH, X 4 1/4 " WIDE, X 3 1/2 " FRONT TO BACK.
