Just came across this:

IT IS FALSELY ADVERTISED AS "CARVED BY FRANK POLK".

Correct-o-mundo!
This is definitely NOT a figure carved by Frank Polk. He never did anything of this sort.
All of his carvings had a Western theme. He also never used a Mills "Poinsettia", that I
am aware of. Especially with a hideous paint job like that! [-X
I am not sure who carved this figure. May be a DuRose example.
