Following the patterns of the celluloid
keepsakes, these will probably be the next price-bracket up for tourism;
ceramic and ivory being above these, silver-neff at the top? A bamboo-raft
punter who looks like one of those fishermen who use trained ducks (. . .
cormorants?), a small fishing vessel with three crew and a larger vessel with
two crew - I'd like to know how they pulled-in that ton of fish without a
winch!
From the other side; the five loin-clothed
fishermen are all the same basic sculpt, the arms and legs bent to fit their final
position/task, the punter seems to have been built in situ with a soldering
iron, or at least - his legs/feet have been?
The 'real' Brown Water Navy liaise with a
shore-patrol to check out two fishing boats, paying no heed to the old man on a
raft . . . death can come quickly to the un-alert, but when your imperialist
occupiers are supplied by Baravelli (figures)
and Hong Kong (vessel), what can you expect!
