They were there sometime in the 1940's or 1950's. We also found a blowgun that is possibly from "Borneo" (connected to Malaysia?) That was a hoot because I thought without looking closly at first that they were a bundle of fighting weaponry from Japan. It was only when I looked closely that we deciphered the label the owner had attached to them. He used to give presentations at local schools about his travels...we've heard lots of interesting stories about him though I have never met him. We bought the house from his daughter...
