[QUOTE="Frank Luongo, post: 4386665, member: 6745"]Thank you for this photo! The numbers on the base of the bird are: 6 C Delta. E9-162 the 2 being quite faint. The walrus skull on the Isaaci piece measures 12 x 5.5 inches high. The fisherman sculpture is 8 inches in height and the seal is 7 inches long. The seal slides onto a protruding wooden peg set into the bottom edge of the skull and the fisherman figure similarly sets onto a wooden peg on the top surface of the skull (this peg is broken off flush to the skull). When assembled the seal floats halfway in and out of the skull with the fisherman astride, holding a bone type fishing rod with a string or twine attached to the seals back. The bone fishing rod has been broken but seems complete.[/QUOTE]
