-St. Bernard Dog with Pack c. 1905 - 1939

This cast iron figurine of a St. Bernard dog, created by the A.C. Williams Company sometime between 1905 and 1939, is a charming example of Americana. The dog is depicted in a classic pose, standing with its head turned slightly to the side, and a barrel strapped to its back. This iconic image of the St. Bernard, a breed known for its rescue work in the Alps, was popularized by the A.C. Williams Company during the early 20th century.
