Some recent finds....

One of my favorite finds is a small art deco bust of a girl. Its set on a base and has some pretty cool markings.  It was at the Pasadena city college flea market. The guy wanted forty. I offered 20. He said no.
I walked around the market for a few hours and as I was leaving I noticed it was still there, I offered 20 again, he came down to 30. We settled at 25. It was still above my 20 dollar rule but I liked it! When I got home I cleaned it up a little and noticed a signature on the piece...A. Rodin. I am doing some research to find out if this is a first generation piece after his death. Anyone know anything about it?
