GENERAL INFORMATION. Baston designed Paul Revere, the Boston silversmith made famous for his ride to Lexington and Concord warning the Minutemen that "The British are coming," as an obvious Boston gift item. He took Brom Bones (SML-142) off his horse and seated Paul.
In 1955, he inscribed the figurine base with "Paul Revere Lodge A.F. & A.M. (Ancient Free and Accepted Masons) 100th Anniversary" and sold 500 to the Lodge.From Dr. Glenn Johnson's book, The Sebastian Miniature Collection.
