This was found late morning at the Alameda Antiques Faire. Not on the table with the rest of the mugs, but on a table in the back of the booth inside an upright display case. Paid about 25% of the last sale price of the same mug which sold on eBay for just slightly over $800.00 in May. That was for both the Frankoma War God and Kelbo's Slim Smiley mug together. The vendor was asking $425.00 for both, I paid somewhat less for them. I don't ususally spend that much on mugs, but what are the chances of finding a Frankoma in the wild, much less with a Kelbo's mug sitting right next to it?
