A Pair of vintage Hubley polychrome cast iron bookends with the subject matter being a young girl at the wishing well. Hubley Manufacturing Company was founded in 1894 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The first toys Hubley produced were made of cast iron. Early models were typically toys. Cast iron is an alloy with a high carbon content and was used extensively in America in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Hubley used this material extensively because it could produce its product line using a reusable mold which would increase production and lower cost of production. These beautiful cast iron bookends are in good condition with only typical loss of color due to age and use. Each bookend measures 5 ¼” high, 4” wide and 2 ¼” deep.
