Diamond bought the Gerry Cottle 2 headed calf which I believe first surfaced at the Wookey Hole Auction.
This is a good Taxi Calf in reasonable condition but felt the price paid was way over the tops.
I think Mike could be ready to sell on now?
Stromboli has a number of contacts also Dr Death (Tony Boswell)So everything is still possible here in the UK,,,if you have the dosh of course.

MY god T-RAY, were are you getting your funding!

and~

What the hell are you doing with your stuff!!!


Brett.

Brett.....I make money for a living!! and I spend it as fast as I can! I'm putting together a couple of shows. Steve, I'll take the one legged bum.....can he put up a tent and take tickets? Kondini, I e-mailed your friend, but haven't heard back. If you speak to him, let him know. Thanks for the tip. It's funny, I've found more stuff overseas than here...the problem is the added crating and shipping!

Ripley's has lots of money, cause they get a lot of folks to work for free. Oh wait, they say the folks will get all kinds of publicity and exposure! I say, if you want exposure, drop your pants.
They call me every fall, wanting me to go out on book tours, and then inform me that I'm supposed to pay for travel, hotel, and work for free on top of it. I don't think so.

T Ray, do you run a show or something? I think that is a valid question.

Steve, I own a music/movie production company and I'm a 3 time Grammy award winning music producer (not to mention a bugged out magician). I'm putting together a traveling Museum of Oddities and local live shows to have fun and expose the sideshow to a young crowd. This is the stuff that has always made me happy so I'm trying to spread it around.....what do you do, have you got an act?

T-Ray,

You are living my dream, man. Good for you!

Doug, I spoke to Joel...thanks for the hook up. Reis, you're living mine.....GREAT WORK!

I heard it best put, "you can also die of exposure"... I like its simplicity.

Just like to share the site on an old post.
One day If I have a house with a fire place I'd want the stuffed unicorn head right above it.

Furry is a true CARD. He was out here to the house once and we went to a decent Jewish Deli...I think he ate out the entire kitchen! 2 or 3 full orders and extras. He's a good one!

His big thing was to go to Tijuana and buy a Black Velvet painting of some dogs playing cards. haha. I got the one where they play Pool. The great master painter (not) Gonzales was the artist. Bet he doesn't sell that! Well, maybe he will...:-(

Want me to make a bid on it? I plan on going, as I live and work in and around Philly. Better yet, give me a shopping list and wire me some cash.

Nah. I'll be talking to Mr Couch. Thanks though! Have fun my friend...kick him in the butt for me.
