Perce Pearce cartoonist and director for early Disney feature films, credited with casting for also known as John Joyface Indian statue
Chief heap-o-luck has a cool limerick on the base
“Him big chief

Rub um nose
Blink um eye
Lift u chin
Trouble fly”
This guy has a 100 plus years patina, I believe he was a good luck charm at a tobacco store. Some gentle cleaning reveals great color, and while a full restorative clean could bring him back to life, I think his story tells more like it is. See pics
