OK, talked to Pops about the swords. They are made completely out of Mammoth bone!!!! He said they are not metal swords.....they are completely bone (kinda like ivory) and very blunt. He bought them at an auction many years ago and paid hundreds more even then ;) They are definitely delicate and for show only. :beer: The handles, etc all hanve detailed carvings and inlays of bone as well.

Need to talk about dive bell. I'll PM you after I make a few calls.

Thanks!

That is some beautiful stuff, especially that dive helmet would love to be able to drop the money on that.

Bump it up

I want the Dive Bell too. Out of my price range, but that's a dam good deal for an awesome piece of cool history.

Keith,

Wish I had more $$$ for teh dive bell, are you taking offers? Wher si the stuff located at?

Gui

Yeah, its all going to ebay pretty soon, I just REALLY dont wanna deal with shipping the big stuff ;)

That is cool as shit!

If I had 800 bukcs to spend on something I couldn't really use, I'd take that right away.

I'm actually interested in the mammothbone lion top vase... It would make a great present for my mother. She has a small collection of Asian stuff.

I'll talk to Adriana tonight and see if we can russle up the funds.

Hardy har har :flipoff2: I personally have seen these dive bells go for 1200+. This isnt a replica liek the crap you get on ebay for 250-450, this is original.

Lemme know Sully. Pops is leaving the country for close to a month next week ;)

Hey Keith
