Up for purchase is a set of bronze clad bookends depicting the Liberty Bell. They were manufactured circa 1950s with no manufacturer's mark on them, but they are very similar to Marion Bronze bookends. The base measures 4.75 x 3.25-inches (at the widest points) in size, and stands 6 5/8-inches high. One bookend weighs 44.5 ounces and the other one weighs 48.2 ounces. See photos for more details.

These bookends are in very good condition. There are no cracks or serious dents in the metal surfaces. One bookend has three very small (casting?) holes--one on the top edge of the Liberty Bell (seen in main photo on right), one on the side near the bottom edge (seen in first photo below on right), and one near the front top corner (barely visible in main photo). The other bookend has a small hole atop one of the two iron bars holding the bell. There are also some green corrosion spots on the bookends that need to be cleaned off. A very nice set with barely visible defects.
