Thanks for the link.

See ya on your web order page.

Halberds.

Ps: What is the dimension from the top of the skull to the bottom of the base? I need to know this for the maille maker.

Love them. Image How big are the eye sockets and can some lights be inserted with cut red glass inserted in the front?

Forget red glass, drill little holes into the bottom of the eye socket so you can slip red leds in them, that way you cant see the light source but the sockets glow red

Halberds - 22"

CWA - big enough that I've stuck Halloween rubber eyeballs in the sockets. They look really horror-movie creepy that way, but as a former anthropologist I'm into the "skull purity" of bare bone.

Theros - We've done the led trick with 'em before. Looks pretty cool.

My favorite image (besides the multi-skull lineup above) came when I unpacked my first shipment of eight skulls and sat them in a row across the hood of my old '88 Cadillac. It looked like the early scene in "John Carpenter's Vampires" after they killed off the first nest, and I seriously considered permanently gluing them in place. Image

Hal,

Where I live is the home of Kilgore International. They supply body parts (past) now it is plastic to the med schools. Every once in a while there is a ebay auction with a case and skull. The top of the skull lifts up and it is various parts are numbered. This was a teaching skull. I know that the some of the Med Schools still have a few of their real skeletons and other parts.

Like them very much. I will email you latter.
