Vintage Cast Metal Pirate best Galleon Ship Bookend

1928 cast metal bookends.
The mark indicates the bookends were made by the Connecticut Foundry in Rocky Hill, Conn., on the banks of the Connecticut River. The company was started by two brothers, Anthony and Franklin Enquist, in 1919 on the site of a foundry that had burned down the year best before.
