The Grey Ghost

LI found this bust loose on a table at a figure show many years ago and bought it. I don't know who sculpted it or who manufactured it, but i thought it was a pretty good representation of John S. Mosby (a.k.a "the Grey Ghost") as a colonel in 1864-65. The painting was done in acrylics and still need to figure out what his base will be. Thanks for looking.

Very nice.... To my eye, in the pic it actually looks somewhat like an older portrait painting.

Hi Dave

That's a great find and a good representation of "The Ghost"

Like the flesh highlights on him

Once you've sorted a base .....

Well painted. It might be an old Fort Dusquene bust, or possibly Legends & Lore.

Thank you all for your comments. After Blind Pew's post, I went on-line and was able to determine the bust was made by Legends & Lore (LL 063)
