K. F. B. Foundry Sample Enamel Claw Foot Bath. (New South Wales). Sample/Miniature. Metalware. K. F. B. Foundry Sample Enamel Claw Foot Bath. Pink colour. 152 mm long. 1911-1918
Excellent. (N/A). Just a few minor enamel flakes around the rim. Some minor wear to the bottom of the feet. Little nick or two. An amazing salesman's sample from an interesting company, we have never seen one of these. As per Wikipedia, "In 1911, three employees of Metters Limited, Norman Keysor, Edward Forrest, and Henry Barnett, left to found K.F.B. Foundry, which in 1918 became K.F.B. Ltd., in direct competition to Metters Ltd., and a price war ensued, to the benefit of neither party. In 1927 the two companies merged under a holding company, General Industries, Ltd." Estimate: $100-150
