This cast bronze portrait bust was produced by The Franklin Mint as part of a limited series of presidential sculptures. Executed with strong classical modeling and period-appropriate dress, the bust reflects the Franklin Mint’s focus on historical portraiture and commemorative American subjects.
The sculpture is solid and weighty, with a dark bronze patina and detailed facial features, hair, and clothing. The underside bears Franklin Mint markings consistent with late 20th-century production. Some examples in this group retain original identification labels, while others remain intentionally unattributed and are presented as presidential portrait studies rather than named likenesses.
These busts were acquired from a film set and display well as individual objects or as part of a grouped historical display. Ideal for shelves, desks, libraries, or Americana collections.
