ZACH!!! stop clowning around and get back to your connoisseur!!!
By the way does that K&C Elephant look as impressive in person as it does in the picture??

It really does. It's not to level of my Russian elephants, but it is definitely a special add to the collection

I bid on every single one of them - someone out there REALLY wanted them. I loved them all, but $850 or whatever it was???? Get outta town!
I gave up well before that point

Fortunately, I never got interested in the clowns, although I did sell a few for Mike. I know that they tend to be rare but I didn't honestly think that they would draw that much interest. However, it just takes one determined bidder to raise the stakes.

Zach,

I know I'm late on this but, I have to agree...clowns are creepy...and yes John Wayne Gacy suited up as a clown. Eeeeks, that creeps me out man!

So, ZB, at night when you get up to get a glass of water or take a leak and the moon light is just right...those little clowns will be staring at you. Laughing at you. Watching you. Night after night...going heee-heee-heee.

I getting eh-scare...buenas noches,

John from Texas

I just picked this up at an auction. I don't know who did the casting or the painting. All I know is that it's Napoleon and it's 90mm and I liked it!

It's Andrea

It's Andrea

Yes. If Andrea it is metal. Andrea title "Napoleon at Fontainblau 1814"
However it appears to also be pirated in resin.

Nice pick up Zach! The sculpting on Napoleon's face captures all the emotions of that fateful day at Fontainebleau in 1814. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
Brendan
