Welcome back! Yes, we've been busy at Duff Tweed Carvings and have three new carvings to share. All three carvings are compliments of Alex in Downey, California. Alex purchased these three pieces directly from Duff Tweed in 1968 and shares the following:
I bought them from Duff in 1968 in Pasadena and they have been in storage ever since. I remember he had several for sale that day and I asked him which were his favorites and why. He pointed to these and when I asked why,he answered 'because their faces tell it all'. I bought them immediately. Unfortunately I moved around the country for a while and never had a worthy place to display them.
-AlexFirst we have Double Jigger Jack Grant in a really cool black and red jacket.
Jack loves is hootch and in this carving he is drinking Old Mule.
Look at how clean and pristine this carving is. Alex took great care of all three carvings.
Here are two other carvings of Double Jigger Jack Grant for comparison purposes:
Next we are proud to share Sue The Bastards. Good things come to those who wait! We had watched this item sell about a year ago on Ebay and regretted having not bid on it. Then like magic, it appeared.
Alex informed us that while there are many golfer sets carved by Duff Tweed, Sue the Bastards was carved in a much lower number of editions. As with all Duff Tweed carvings, we're not sure how many Duff created in his lifetime, but owners and collectors are getting a pretty good idea over time.
I wouldn't want to mess with this guy! Below is a close-up.
Last, but certainly not least is The Low Bidder. We have another low bidder/hobo carving, but it is not titled. Additionally we watched one sell on Ebay earlier this year. We'll post pictures of each below.
What a great paint job! You have to appreciate Duff's attention to detail. Check out his left foot where his shoe sole is separating.
We would like to extend our sincerest thanks to Alex in Downey for caring so well for these pieces for all these years. Additionally a big THANK YOU is in order for his willingness to share what he learned about Duff Tweed and for allowing us to add his special carvings to the collection.
