Long Description
i inherited this white porcelain tiger from my great aunt. it belonged to her brother who served in the u.s army during world war 2. supposedly he acquired it out of a german art museum while he was serving his tour of duty in the european theater. It has remarkable detail, including being an anotomically correct male tiger. there is a stamp underneath of a heart and the letter "v". it has never been appraised, as far as I am aware of. i have no idea of it's worth, other than its aesthetic beauty.
History
supposedly brought back to u.s. from a nazi germany art museum by u.s army soldier
