This is my first attempt to add a photo so hope it works.
This is my cast iron skull. It is solid and weighs about 25 pounds. It is life sized. I had it custom made about 5 years ago at a foundry in Sidney Ohio. It is definitely one of a kind. We used a Styrofoam Halloween decoration to create the mold, so it may look familiar.

That is an awesome skull. 3 questions:

Does it have a name?
Did you season that skull? It looks seasoned.
Was it cast in a foundry formerly owned by Wagner or Sidney Holloware?

#3 Not sure, Foundries change hands a lot. Hard to track.

He hangs out in my woodshop most of the time. He holds down long boards while I cut them but most of the time he just holds the door open.
