George Washington Bust

        This bust of George Washington is extremely rare, beautiful, dated, and almost 8 1/2 inches tall,

                      but the rear view may be even more interesting, which makes it such a neat piece:
                                       
                                    
                                  
All the information about the bust is right there, Enoch Wood the famous potter, perhaps the most famous of all, and the date 1818,  and below the American eagle in an adaption of the current seal of the USA (until 1841).
