Hey guys, I'm partially gauging interest and also using this interest thread to keep track of who is interested in a faux taxidermy Sneetch. This would be a limited run of around 10. I will try to complete these in batches. Time estimate is realistically around Christmas time for the first one. Cost would be $250 + $30 domestic shipping.
This is a faux Taxidermy Sneetch inspired by Theodor "DR. SEUSS" Geisel and his Collection of Unorthodox Taxidermy made by myself and Ultraman.
"The fledgling Springfield Zoo was a beloved part of Dr. Seuss’s childhood. If his father wasn’t able to accompany him and his sketchpad there, he would go with his mother or his sister, Marnie. Only later, when Ted’s dad became the superintendent of parks, did he also become an unexpected resource, who now aided and abetted his son’s artistic efforts. Zoo animals that had met their demise lived on as their bills, horns, and antlers were shipped to Ted’s New York apartment to become exotic beaks and headdresses on his bizarre taxidermy sculptures.
The result was an astounding 17 sculptures—created during the 1930s—which remain today as some of the finest examples of his inventive and multidimensional creativity."
The Sneetch with the base measures approx. 19 inches tall x 7 inches wide. ( comes with aluminum plaque as well )
INTEREST LIST:
1- ajhix - PAID (shipped/ recieved)
2- Gimpdiggity - PAID (shipped/ recieved)
3- squidsicle - PAID (shipped)
4- squeaks
