Several years ago, a rather eccentric old friend of the family gave me a porcelain piece. It is a gray fish, and in good condition. At one time I had a newpaper clipping explaining what it was, but cannot no longer locate the clipping. There is writing partially worn off, on the bottom of the piece. I believe the clipping said that there was a sports related series of pieces, tied to a liquor company. I believe the liquor company was French, and the piece is marked "made in Italy". Do you have any idea what it is, or if it has any value? Or can you provide me with some direction as to how I might research it further? Many thanks in advance.
