Two footmen stand shoulder to shoulder in matching red coats, gold braid, and black trousers, marked \"Fish\" on the front of the base and stamped 272 on the back. It's referenced in doorstop collector literature as one of only seven known Anne Fish designs made for Hubley.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe paint is all original.
