S is for Spiritual Spruce and Sacred Sequoia

Just a quickie, adding all the loose Totem Poles to their tub last night it struck me they were mostly from Rack Toys and against my one day doing them all again properly (because - as I've probably already bored you with - the old post can't be edited as the tag-rules changed on blogger a few years later and I can't save changes without deleting a bunch of the tags!), we might as well get them on the Totem Pole tag, here, for now!

I think we've probably seen all of them (or versions of them before) and both Chris and Peter can be thanked for some of these I think, along with some deliberate purcheses by yours truly and a Charity Shop one or two?

Of particular interest is that the marked-Comansi one (PVC, forth from the left blue-on-red giving a purplish look) is smaller than the polystyrene China-made copy (2nd from left, red, white & blue), this is because pantographing can go either way, and those who tell you it always makes smaller copies don't understand the tech'! The silver one is near-flat and the Britains Hong Kong one is missing a base but was in the bag so got in the shot!

The current rack-toy one on the left is the biggest, with copies of Britains Herald and Timpo featuring, along with a grey version of the previously seen brown one from CTS or BMC - can't remember! The other brown one is also a copy of a European original I think, but again I can't remember and haven't the time to look it up [minutes later - Marx re-issue, it's on the old posts!] . . . that's it; Totem Poles . . . again!
