Oh they'll get put up for sale in my shop eventually. Don't hold your breath though my sense of urgency regarding listing new things isn't as developed as my need to talk crap on t'internet (my bank account will testify to this).

I'll have another look to see if I can find the original post so we can compare them - it'd be fab to have a positive ID - do we think the eBay seller sounds like he knows what he's on about, is the attribution correct?

They do - I sold a seriously funny looking Desimone donkey & cart thing (it was kitsch beyond words) on eBay at the start of my dealing career and was amazed to see it fetch over £50!!!!!!

I absolutely hate the thing, I'm not a fan of animal figurines and what a foul colour combo - green & yellow ...
