Charming Old Erzgebirge House with Yellow Roof marching staff with some scuffs and scratches

with some scuffs and scratches and paint loss here and there

for Max Schmeling

and right side up for one means the other is upside down

The narrowness of the neck makes one want to be a bit careful carrying it around but is very sound and seems quite sturdy

Charming Old Erzgebirge House with Yellow Roof marching staff with some scuffs and scratchesThe combination of yellow roof and creamy white on this old house completely does it for me. I believe it is German Erzgebirge, earlyish 20th century, and while there is a lot of detail on what is technically the front and it is good all the way around, but it is the simplicity of the back side, with just these paned, not quite linearly placed windows, that I especially love. Great silhouette and dark red painted chimney too. Very charming. 5 3 16" w
