New buys

Post by phat rat »

Bought on the net this week-end, the boxed pair yesterday. Messed up not checking better and later found they were imports. Today I got the 110 and won by a penny. For those not familiar with the figure on the sides it's a Kokopelli an Anasazi Indian legend. It fits with some other things I have

Kokopelli wasn't a legend, he was a fertility god.
