wow, Tikilicious, those are GREAT items!

LOVE the monkey in the palm tree(I've also got a thing for monkeys), and that doll is wayyy too cool.

Thank you so much for posting them, the stories that go along with items make them extra-special(although sometimes weird)

p.s. as an afterthought, that doll looks cast, with the seams on the insides of her arms. maybe the guy melted the rubber and made it from a mold?

Yes! The person who sold it to me said that his grandfather worked in a business where he made rubber molds and cast them for various products. And he said something about how his grandfather's factory made products for the war, etc. I dont know how true the story is, I might have been suckered. But for 3 bucks, to have a great doll and a cool story to go with it, true or not, I said "DEAL!" lol!

Thanks! :D
