Witco Wood & Metal Cat Wall Art

Witco Cat circa 60's
got this recent find at an estate sale on 1/2 price day! i haven't seen many online that are both wood & metal. there are lots of Witco wood cats, but no added metal accent. this company did the furniture for Elvis Presley's Jungle Room at Graceland. they also did a lot of "shag" style art & leaders in the Tiki rage.

i can't wait to find some more Witco art. this is why i go to garage sales, not only for something cool; but to learn all about a new(old) company & their great history in Americana Culture!
