Thanks. Your correction is the most common way to spell it. Mine is a variant.

So, I guess.. 7 ? There might be another one or two in a drawer but these are the ones I see displayed. My favorite is the teeny one. I paid $200 for it 20 years ago. It is amazing. So incredibly detailed for such a very, very small head ( a quarter covers the head, but not the hair) |

Hey Ringmaster, I like Voodoo too. It's the New Orleans way to spell it. But that word isn't creepy to me. It's thrilling. And I do love exploitation Voodoo movies like White Zombie even though they don't reflect the real thing. More based on fear of a religion than the religion itself. William Seabrooke's Magic Island ( I think that's what it's called ) started the whole Western view of Voodoo. A completely made up book, fiction marketed as non-fiction.
