Please help Identify! Is this Witco? - Collecting Tiki

I would not bother. I have repeatedly stated that just because something is Witco, it does not mean it must be good. If it is not Tiki or modernist Witco, most of it is uninteresting. These King and Queen wall carvings are one of those standard items that have been up on e-bay countless times: They might have been a good seller back then, but not all that has been made in the mid-century is gold. Bill Westenhaver would be the first to agree. But you know that, Buzzy. If you are just asking for resale reasons, and the stuff is dirt cheap and you can make a profit - fine :) [ Edited by: bigbrotiki 2016-09-07 23:07 ]
