Description: The Babcock & Wilcox Company has been around since the 1850's. For years they were a major boiler maker company in the United States. They are still in business today. In the past, they would honor long time employees by presenting them with a pair of cast iron bookends as a token of appreciation for their long time dedication to the company, perhaps as a retirement gift. For sale here is one such pair that was given to an employee for 31 years of service. The pair is quite heavy. The combined weight is about 5 pounds. Each measures about 6 1/2" tall, 4 1/2" wide and about 1 1/2" deep. This pair is in nice condition for no chips or cracks. The Art Deco style figure on each is in excellent condition. Please look carefully at the photos here as they can better describe this pair of bookends better than I can using words. I have liquidated estates for over 40 years. I have been using eBay for the past few years to help liquidate items, many of which come from assisted living communities where estate sales cannot be held out of concern for the security for the other residents. I strive to be accurate in my listing descriptions. If you have a question or concern about any item, please contact me BEFORE making an offer. Payment is appreciated and expected within 24 hours of purchase. I will usually ship out the item the following day using USPS Priority Mail or FedEx Home Delivery. The postage shown in my listing is ONLY AN ESTIMATE. The actual amount may be higher or lower depending on the location of the buyer. Please wait for an invoice before making payment, if possible. The invoice should correctly reflect the amount of postage to your zip code. Also, upon receiving your item in the mail, you have TWO DAYS to report any damage which occurred during transit. I DO NOT SELL INTERNATIONALLY. However, there are a few countries that I WILL ship to using the International Shipping Program offered by eBay. My liability for damage, however, ends when the item reaches their headquarters. If you are an individual or company that re-ships items to other parts of the world, my liability for damage will end once the package arrives at the United States address you provide. Also sales tax will be collected by eBay when required by individual states.
