I carried it around forever thinking it was wood. Closer inspection showed it to be a resin casting. It's 16" tall, by 4" wide, and 3" deep.

When I bought it, the guy told me it was from Alaska. I laughed internally because I thought that he was confusing totem poles with tikis. Then I turned it over and read this:

Creed Totems, Anchorage Alaska. The only info I found on Creed was that they made resin castings of Native American art and they were from Alaska.
Any other info on Creed out there?

Maybe a early Poly-Art piece?? Calling Detective Buzzy to the rescue!! :)
Aloha, Freddie

Wow, he has family out there! I haven't had a chance to do any research yet.
