A vintage cast metal baseball-themed bookend produced by the Weidlich Brothers Manufacturing Company of Bridgeport, Connecticut. The piece features a male baseball player rendered in a dynamic batting stance, wearing a period-style uniform with a collared jersey, cap, and knicker-style trousers. The sculpture is constructed of cast white metal, likely spelter, with a plated finish. The reverse base of the item contains several stamped marks, including the circular Weidlich Brothers shield logo containing the stylized letters WB, the words COPYRIGHT U.S.A., and the catalog number 4190. The figure is structurally reinforced with a rocky-textured support at the rear of the legs, a common design element for heavy bookends from the early 20th century.
