A Cairn Studio artwork of Tom Clark. This is "Monty". Monty is named for Monte Carlo, home of the Monaco Grand Prix, which was first run in 1929. Once a year, the curving, seafront roads of this principality are turned into a race course. In 1933, the Monaco Grand Prix was the first race to assign starting positions based on practice times, rather than the usual method of drawing them out of a hat. Monty thinks he's be safer driving in the race than going to the gambling casinos, and to make sure, he using a lifesaver for his steering wheel. You can tell from Monty's hat that he's going fast, and the look on his face says that he thinks he's going to win. Monty has an Italian coin because he's driving a 1967 Ferrari 330-P4. There's a convenient "pit" stop right behind him. the hood ornaments are protected by acorns. Monty and his friend Indy are the first two members of the race car driver series. The racers can be placed side by side, but like Dem and Rep, only one can be in front at the finish line. The number for this piece is "70", dated 1988. It is in excellent, like-new condi- tion. He measures 4-1/2" tall and 5" long. The Certificate of Authenticity from Cairn Studio,Ltd. is included.

A Cairn Studio artwork of Tom Clark's Gnomes collection. This one is "Numeral 0". Numeral "0" has got plenty of nothing - the little thermometer at his side is at zero degrees. That's colder than Alpabet E's Eskimo pies! Even his coin from Saudi Arabia has a zero on it. No wonder this little Woodspirit is dressed for cold weather in his earmuffs, scarf and winter cap. Still, he looks pretty chilly to me. How many more minutes does Numeral "0" want to stay outside? Zip, zero, zilch! The number for this piece is "2", dated 1995. He measures 4-14" tall and 2" wide.

It will ensure her to always have peaches for her favorite treat.

Pete and Re-Pete know the importance of recycling. Pete has recycled acorns as his jacket buttons, and Re-Pete has recycled a wal- nut shell as his hat. They're bagging the paper they collected, and they'll leave it at Tom Clark's stop for the recycling truck. Their coins are Italian and show Vulcan. the Roman god of fire who made weapons and thunderbolts, and a farmer's plow. This is to remind us of the biblical hope that one day we will "beat swords into plowshares," the ultimate recycling! The number for this piece is "96", dated 1990.

A Cairn Studio artwork of Timothy Wolfe's collection. This one is "Pistachio". In case you haven't already guessed from seeing his ear-to-ear grin, Pistachio is an ice cream nut. Only a fellow ice cream lover could possibly comprehend the sensation of being surrounded by one's favorite, refreshing brand and flavor. Whether chocolate, vanilla, strawberry or a combination of the three, each bite is a spe- cial treat to the tongue as well as the tummy. Pistachio (obviously an ardent fan of the flavor by the same name) was thrilled when he found this cone nearly full of the nutty, creamy substance which makes his mouth water and his fur come alive. Could there be any better way to top off a hot summer? Pistacio thinks not! By the time he polishes off the cone itself, he will have eaten far too much. That, however, is to be expected of someone with such an uncontrollable sweet tooth. The number for this piece is "58", dated 1992. He measures 5" tall and 2-3/4" in diameter. It is in excellent, like-new condition. The Certificate of Authenticity from Cairn Studio, Ltd. is not included. It is handsigned by Tim Wolfe.
