[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 2737301, member: 51"]I know that some of these are a dime a dozen, but this was at a garage sale (due to Covid, only the 2nd garage sale I've been to in 2020) and was desperate to buy SOMETHING...ANYTHING... to have fun with and research, so came home with this for $10. It has kind of a nice look and the owner said he bought it new "before he was married" which I took to be maybe 30-40 years ago. Doing some research I've found that there are a number of people who sign the back with the name "Yazzie", but any luck with the first name? Also, and this is probably the curse of these sand pictures, there is some damage, for a few spots I just blew what looked like damage off, it was some kind of white powder, but I think maybe these other spots are scuffs. [ATTACH=full]277081[/ATTACH] [B]Taped on the back, can't make out all the words:[/B] [ATTACH=full]277082[/ATTACH] [B]Any help with the first name?[/B] [ATTACH=full]277083[/ATTACH] Some of the damage, a few more like this, too . I tried getting it VERY very lightly wet w/a towel--water only, unless it was more powder like substance, but didn't do anything. [ATTACH=full]277085[/ATTACH] Damage not as noticeable here, it has a cool vibe, I think. Is there a name for the type of person shown with the arrows? The back says, "Horn Toad (sp?) People?" Am I reading that correctly? [ATTACH=full]277088[/ATTACH] Thanks for taking a look.[/QUOTE]
