A whimsical and richly detailed piece from the beloved Folkstone Collection, this 1999 release features Myron R. Fishmeister alongside young Billy Bob in a charming lakeside vignette. Myron stands proudly with fishing rod in hand and creel basket at his side, while Billy Bob beams up from below—together capturing the timeless humor of tall tales told after a long day on the water. The sculpted base bears the playful inscription “Fish… Fish… Lie,” adding signature Boyds wit to the presentation.
Crafted in cold cast resin, this piece showcases the intricate texturing and hand-painted detail the Folkstone series is known for—from the layered fishing vest and coiled line to the expressive faces and rustic woodland attire. The dimensional storytelling, layered accessories, and warm earthy palette make this a standout display piece for collectors of Boyds Bears & Friends.
Marked on the base as Style #28247 and part of The Folkstone Collection®, this figurine was first introduced in 1999 and remains a nostalgic favorite among Boyds enthusiasts. A character-driven collectible that blends humor, craftsmanship, and Americana charm into one memorable composition.
