OK you tribal guys, what did I buy? I was more interested in the one with all the fabric but the seller wanted to get rid of both although the longer one felt wrong to me but he basically threw it in to get me to buy the other. Beside identification, do you think they’re safe to hang as far as infestations go? I’m a little flipped but not enough to not keep them although I’m thinking about putting them both in a big plastic bag with mothballs or whatever you guys suggest and leaving them in the garage for a month. I’m assuming that they’re both African. If I got taken, it wasn’t too much [ATTACH=full]143969[/ATTACH] so no biggie and lesson learned.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was told that they were old (I think the fabric one is but not so much on the other) and inherited and he was moving and didn’t want them. There’s one more that I didn’t buy (he wanted more than these two together) but I took a picture and will post it separately if you don’t mind looking. Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
