    Anyone recognize this slightly unpleasant piece? It looks like if Mark Twain was an old Native American lady kind of. Not mine. I’m just curious. Dimensions not given and it’s mounted on a giant piece of lumber for some reason so we can’t see the reverse. 5FF2F439-E094-42D8-AB32-676A7E7D6169.jpeg

    Would/could you post a photograph of it shot from straight on?

    Cannot unfortunately. I don’t own it. This is the only image I have.

    It does kind of look like him! He seems to have a very long mouth though and this person a very short one. If only their mouth was longer!

    Lol. Looks maybe he loved a lemon drop too. Kind of a puckered face.

    This is probably what happens if you roll over Beethoven.
