| "Signing
Line" |
| Special
Edition Treasure
Jest Series |
| by Peter
Calvesbert |
| Made in England |
| For an
unprecedented third consecutive year, Harmony Kingdom was
chosen to create the International Collectibles Exposition
exclusive. In keeping with ICE box figurines of
years past, "Signing Line" humorously depicts enthusiasts
in their quest to perfect their collections. |
| Featured here
are a cat and dog collector in line for Mad Murphy to sign
their ICE pieces from 1998 and 1999. |
| Each animal is
covered with promotional pins that are passed out during
the show by exhibiting companies. |
| The canine
collector sports a tee shirt emblazoned with "HK Tour 2000
- Atlanta, Rosemont, Hawaii" - Hawaii being Peter's
preferred location for the next ICE show.
At his feet are the batteries which have fallen out of his
camera - practical matters often fall by the wayside in
the signing line frenzy. |
| Does the watch
mark on his left wrist indicate that he's a watchdog, or
does it signify the hours sometimes spent waiting to meet
the artist and have favorite pieces signed? |
| On the back of
the base is a cryptic arrangement of letters. Peter
says that these have to do with the colorful Harmony Ball
ties that he is fond of wearing at ICE events. |
