I found this piece of groovy art at a street sale in Clovis, CA, last weekend...

It's about a foot and a half high and is from 1970.
The guy selling it said it was by a carver in Grover Beach, CA. The seller's wife had banished it to the garage. It was covered in thick dust and had apparently been "sprayed" by a cat - I found this out the hard way while initially cleaning it! Some elbow grease and some wax paste seems to have brought it back to life.
