Hey Vanoldschool,

I checked my handy "Collecting Toy Soldiers #2" by Richard O'Brien, and your sailor appears to be from a set of either 16 or 20 sailors and listed as a factory set simply named, "U.S. Sailors." The same mold was also painted differently and used in an eight-piece set named, "U.S. Sailors, bluejackets." All sets were issued between WW1 and WW2. Diggin' those old toy soldiers!
Hope this helps, Subterranean
