      @Matt you're worry is whether your IH purchase is a "divorce peice"
      Mine is whether the act of trying to assemble a bookshelf together is a divorce task

            @scarfmace yeah this skull is rad! From the underside it has elements of a human form which I often trip out on. This is the only taxidermy piece I have, I’d love to see yours.

              kind of a lame post since i dont have pics as this was many years ago, but i dont think i have ever topped finding a complete silvertone 1484 at a goodwill. was in school for electronics engineering at the time and my professor helped me get it working. i was young and broke so ended up selling it for rent money years later at a fraction of what they go for now even with the reverb we never could figure out how to get working...i also once found a silvertone bobcat in a dumpster. you guessed it, sold that for peanuts too 😕

                I picked up the below with tags at Buffalo Exchange right across the street from Self Edge LA a few years back, $14 for the two. I ended up selling them for a good %, that was for sure.

                  @Cents-or-Non-Cents that's a crazy good score!

                  I bought this from a local flee market last weekend:
                  it's a Campo del Cielo astroid weighing in at about 100 grams

                  Nice reminder we are all just spacedust, floating around the big void 🙂

                    @Inorganic I have quite a few nice pieces but not gonna photo bomb this tread, here are some of my favorites. If more people collect taxidermy, many we can start a tread?

                    PS: most of these are thrift shop scores so it's still a bit on topic 😅

                          Very intriguing! Never thought that I'd be interested in taxidermy...

                                      Picked up this guy today for a few bucks - looks to be early but I'm not great at deciphering the military label codes.
                                      A little too small for me so it may be a catch and release but a cool find all the same
