A rare, handsome and desirable figure depicting a Greenwich Pensioner. This figure was made by the Alpha Factory and has been professionally restored (please see details below).
The man sits drinking a mug on a table to his left, on which documents are spread. He wears the uniform of a Greenwich Pensioner.
The figure pairs with another Alpha Factory figure of a Greenwich Pensioner (at the time of listing, also available from this site, and with restoration). The pair is shown in a photograph accompanying this listing.
The figure presents well but has been professionally restored. There is old professional restoration through the waist, arms, nose, and the brim of the hat. The restoration has been carried out to a very high standard. The figure is crazed and there are some nibbles to the base.
