They've been packed away, but I finally created a nice spot to display them all together. These are among Pam's & my favorites in our collection. We missed out on the first one, but made darn sure we got the rest. Terry Attachments:

Nice collection, I've got the last 5 figures myself. Mine are still packed away, it's hard to find a place to display them. Brian C

Correct me if I am wrong . . . but I believe the body mold is that of DANIEL BOONE.

But they are Bill Buck heads? Which are the same as Boone heads but slimmer. Anyway a fine collection.

You just have to keep the faith - I'm hoping that someday Noah will be able to make these again!

You just have to keep the faith - I'm hoping that someday Noah will be able to make these again! Selfishly, I do want Noah to make a full and speedy recovery so that I can get my hands on some of his amazing creations! Much more than that, I hope that he recovers just for his own sake. I do not really know him, but aside from the fact that he is another human being who has had to endure terrible suffering, I can identify with what he is going through, albeit on a much less serious level. I make a lot of things with my hands. I have always done so and get an immeasurable sense of joy and acomplishment out of it. I paint, scupt, cast pewter, remodel my house and I do a lot of wood carving. A few years back, I had an accident with a table saw at work. Some one removed the kickback gaurd from the saw and a piece of wood shot back & tore through my fingers. The end result was that one of my hands was useless for most sorts of work for almost a whole year. I never realized how much of my personal identity was tied up in making things until I couldn't do it anymore. I felt terrible and it was something I had to work hard at to get through. Luckily, I have now regained almost full use of my hand and am back to all my favorite pastitmes. That is a fine thing, but more importantly, I have come out of it realizing there was much more to me than just what I make with my hands. I am a lot more than some fingers. I don't know if Noah is bothered by this like I was. If so, I hope that he realizes how much happiness his work has brought to others. I ordered a Jesse James today. I am so very happy to have the opurtunity to by one. If he never makes another thing, he has given me that. I figure that we all owe Noah a good bit of thanks. I hope that Noah makes a full recovery. I hope that someday he can go back to doing what he obviously loves very much. If that is not possible, I hope that he is proud of the beautiful things he has made already. Most of all, I hope that he remembers a human being is more than just objects that they make. Regards, Canis
