history of my piggy banks, part 3


Gordo asks how long I have made piggies. I made my first in 1989, and the fourth or fifth I ever made is this brown fellow on the left. My mom has one that would have been number three, if she still has it. (must look) This guy has a cork under. On the right is a recent piggy, and in the middle the NEW AND IMPROVED small, sitting piggy who can hold coins too. There is some evolution.

I LOVE the cork-nosed guys. I've never seen that before...

The man with the stuffed and runny nose wonders if some corks might be useful....
