Pewter Grizzly Bear Paw Magnet

This pewter refrigerator magnet is a miniature copy of an actual track from the front paw of a grizzly bear, originally cast in plaster by Dwayne Ehli on the banks of the North Fork of the Sun River in the Bob Marshall Wilderness in 1958.

The original track measured over 12″ from heel to claw, but this magnet measures a quaint 2″, and is backed by a powerful magnet that stays securely on the refrigerator, despite the heft of the real pewter. The process used in casting remarkably preserves the details of the original front paw print.
Hand cast by S.R. Funke Company in Kalispell, Montana
