Pets, Wild Animals, Sports, and Holiday Doorstops
There are as
many reasons for collecting cast iron doorstops and figures as there are collectors. Door stops appeal
to an individual's sense of beauty. Some people are motivated by nostalgia. They
remember the cast iron door stop at grandma's house, and associate doorstops with the good
old days, when life was simpler and less stressful. Some people have an
aesthetic appreciation for them; cast iron doorstops are an art form, cast iron sculptures
in miniature, expressing someone's creative vision and others collect by them theme.
