Sewer Tile / Pipe Folk Art Grotesque Man Sculpture
Grotesque Man (co-worker or the boss?) End of Day Sewer Tile Figure, Likely Ohio. Sewer Tile Folk Art was made from left-over clay at pipe factories after the shift was over.
Later, Molds were made to make “commercial” items to sell like small animals, doorstops, etc. The handmade original pieces such as this are the ones I am most interested in.
Sewer Tile figure hand-formed late 19th - early 20th C. 7” tall. Collection Jim Linderman / Dull Tool Dim Bulb
