Default identifying woodcarver F.B from 1960s
Does anyone know of a carver who used the initials F.B.? The piece I have has 1968 on it and is a figure of a bowler dressed in period costume (hat with plume, shoes with buckles) There is a faint stamp that I cannot make out next to the initials and date. The figure is about 9.5 inches tall.
Thank-you for your help.

Elsa,
Could you post a picture it may be easier maybe someone will be able to know that by the style of carving.

Looks like the initials could also be AB, with one leg of the A also being the upright part of the B. Just a thought and maybe another avenue to look at.Idea
