All I know is that I'm still waiting to see the pics of this "supposed" 1957 Jungle Cruise Vulture that Tangaroa "supposedly" has. :) So, it's been like a week now?

Aaaaack! Sorry -
I took the pix last week - but got busy & forgot!

As I said before, this guy is fiberglass, filthy (from sitting in an attic for 30 + years) & most likely from the 1957 rehab of the Jungle Cruise, when they added some vultures to the show... He's so filthy, that when I tried to clean him with a soft, wet cloth - his old park paint started sluffing off! So, I just left it alone.

He's a little creepy looking, no? I have a fiberglass snake too - I'll take more pix of the collection soon in another post....

In the deal I also got this rubber cast of 1/2 of the African Veldt vultures head - as that is what the guy who gave this to me was working on when he aquired the "filthy" vulture....
