History of the Maker:
AUSTIN PRODUCTIONS INC., founded in 1952 in Brooklyn, NY and in business until 2009. In 1972 the company moved to Holbrook.
Austin started in 1952 manufacturing reproductions of classical Egyptian, Greek and Roman sculptures and expanded into African, Asian and contemporary pieces soon thereafter. The company remains best known for its hand-cast Durastone and bronze reproductions and hand-painted marble pieces and eventually began producing more contemporary subjects, such as modern sports, movies and popular comic strip characters.
The company reproduced thousands of pieces over the years, and retired pieces have high collectible values. In 2000, they moved their manufacturing to Mexico. The company retired its entire line in 2009, giving rise to an active market of dealers and collectors seeking to complete collections before the items become unavailable.
