Alligator measures 61" long. It rides on 4 iron wheels. The body is carved wood. The legs are pressed steel. The tail is jointed so it moves back & forth. 

The frog may have ridden on the alligator's back. It's currently separate. The frog's legs are wrought iron. The alligator's mouth opens & Closes, the artist put the signature inside the mouth "Earl '04"

The frog has a glass eye. The other is missing. The alligator probably had glass eyes originally.  The whole piece is a "Show Stopper" because it makes people stop & look.

Made by Clifford Earl of Hanover, VA We've never seen anything like these.
