Cicero Story

Item #2007

(February, 1985) This industrious Gnome is named for the founder of Holder’s Inc. of Troy, North Carolina. He appears to be adjusting a frame for the Woodtiques shop in that town. The tools of his trade are all about him as he works on the top of his well used bench. He is standing on a braided rug from the famous Capel Rug Company. It is so comfortable to his feet that he has taken off his shoes, revealing his white socks (also from Troy, of course!). One coin is from Greece and the other is from Italy.
