Put a deposit on this awesome PNG piece a few weeks ago and picked it up yesterday. 32" tall. It does have a large chunk missing at the back of the base which you cannot see looking at it front on (if i had taken the pic from the other side you'd see it) but other than some, what look like insect holes, and a couple of cracks on the back which are just from the wood drying over time, it's in great condition for what i think was a good price. Any large PNG carvings that I've ever come across are always damaged in some way and a few i saw a long time ago in a shop that is now gone, they were museum quality and the prices reflected that, so I'm pretty happy with this find.
