Description

VINTAGE 1960’S ALFCO NY MERMAID FIGUREHEAD NAUTICAL SHIP BUST 35”TALL- RARE ITEM.
What an awesome find & really nice vintage condition. She is definitely not perfect but what do you expect since she is between 50 & 60 years old. I have shown some of the imperfections which are crazing and other imperfections. Look at her face it is really nice. Even with imperfections she will be fine if you hang her up right away & she will be safe. Look at the photos for better close up of details & imperfections.
Here is info on the manufacturer.
ALFCO-NY stands for the Artistic Latex Foam Company of NY. The company is now out of business. They were located in New Rochelle, New York, and were responsible for crafting the resin-based home/restaurant decor ship figurehead reproductions in the 1960's and 1970's. They also created nativity statues, as well as the pipe-store Indian statues that stood at the door. It appears they passed on the tradition of manufacturing these figures to the Formcraft Company of NY. None of their models ever got close to the precise wood-imitation replicas of ALFCO-NY
