Description
This figurine is crafted from pressed uranium glass, which presents as a transparent light green under natural light and exhibits a vivid neon green fluorescence when exposed to ultraviolet light. The subject is a young boy in a wide-brimmed hat and overalls, standing on a textured, grassy base adjacent to a small tree stump. The piece is marked on the underside of the base with an embossed copyright symbol followed by the year 1976.

This specific trademark was utilized during the company ownership by Lenox, Inc. (1972-1981).
