ever see one like this?

Yuch!

Interesting! Thanks for posting. I think I would rate this a lot higher than a Yuch Don. It shows some craftsmanship and a migration of the Luger theme into other art forms. I would like to know the artists thoughts in choosing the Lancaster Daisies and sortof Nantucket theme for the decoration. I would guess this was not easy to execute.

I'm thinking more of a sea captain or submarine type motif. I wisk I could make out the inscription.

Royalties
I wonder how much the porcelain company paid to Wes to allow them to represent his face on their product? :confused:

This item, or one like it, was the subject of a thread some time ago. I don't recall if it was this forum or Jan's. As I recall, the "artist" makes several representations of firearms, Luger being only one of them. I think they are Delft, and the workmanship is pretty good. From the pieces I saw, the theme on some them were a bit radical and could be considered politically offensive. I'll keep looking for the thread.

Yes, definitely made in the Netherlands. I remember many years ago seeing them on a trip through Holland.

Hi Tac.
For whatever it is worth, I got the pun. I am particularly fond of puns, but since many believe they are the lowest form of humor I catch a lot of grief when I do it. Who cares...puns are fun. (BTW, I doubt seriously that you offended anyone) Cheers! |
Tac and Ron: One of the constant perils in puns is they will be over the head of your audience.
I thought it a good pun, but Igg appears to be wincing in that post. |
I don't get it...

Look for a thread titled "Oddity" in the Luger Accessories section. Info. on the artist that makes them was listed there by Gerben...
Here are some bio links to the artist : http://www.grandcentralartcenter.com...ts/Krafft.html http://dir.salon.com/story/people/fe...ile/index.html Here is a link to a Gallery that sells his stuff : http://www.dirtgalleryla.com/dirt_charleskrafft.html |
