Tall Cigar Store Indian Folk Art, Tobacco Store American Indian Chief Statue A9

Offered for sale is a striking carved wooden Cigar Store Indian advertising figure. This impressive piece stands on an integrated round base with the word "CIGARS" carved and painted across the front. The figure features crossed arms, a detailed feathered headdress, and remnants of its original hand-painted finish, giving it outstanding character and presence.

The statue displays substantial age-related wear throughout, including paint loss, weathering, surface checking, cracks, chips, and finish deterioration consistent with long-term display and age. Several visible cracks are present in the head and headdress area, and there is wear to the nose and other high points as shown in the photographs. The weathered patina adds to the authentic vintage appearance.

Whether displayed in a tobacco shop, game room, lodge, restaurant, retail setting, or private collection, this large carved figure makes an exceptional decorative statement piece. Its folk art styling and classic cigar store advertising form make it an eye-catching conversation piece.
