What you now bear witness to is the result of many years of searching the American backwoods, the forgotten and the neglected. No cellar left unchecked and no attic unturned to find you the most unique artifacts of American history. The unwanted children, the trophies of battle and the undesirable heirlooms. Obcuriosities is proud to present the latest creation in the Pickled Punks line, "Homo Bovidae". Homo Bovidae. That was the only name to accompany this child of the woodland. When he was auctioned off from the Museum für Naturkunde in Berlin he had only a small label. All that the label said was "Homo Bovidae, Schwarzwald (Black Forest), September 1st, 1939" All we can do is speculate on this specimen's origins. Though the rich, mystical history of the Black Forest would have us tend to think that this could be proof of the existence of the mythical faun or satyr. Pickled Punk is the term that Carnies used privately for the jarred babies used in their sideshows. Though technically this little guy would be called a bouncer on account of the fact that he is manufactured and not natural. Please be aware that this is NOT a real baby. Each one is handmade and unique by film special effects artist, Jared Guenther ( www.1000faces.com). No two are exactly alike.The piece that you receive may differ from the one seen here. Slight differences may occur in paint and finish. Jar is not included for ease in shipping but you will be supplied with easy instructions on where these can be acquired and what fluid to use. Sculpture measures approx. 10" long. Place a Bid!
