Jitney Jungle Hand-Carved Wooden Clock

Also for sale by the same vendor at the Bottle Show event was this very cool, hand-carved wooden Jitney Jungle clock, which I believe had originally been on display in a store. A much smaller size (maybe about two side-by-side laptops or so?), this piece is obviously way more manageable, but that didn’t mean its price was significantly cheaper, lol. In having to make a decision between the two, as neat as this piece was, it was the giant metal in-store advertising piece that called my attention more, since that was basically a once-in-a-lifetime, bucket-list type of find for me. I had to leave this one behind, but I did tell my friend about it, and – as a fan of both Jitney, and clocks (go figure!) – he actually ended up getting in touch with the seller and buying it himself, and it is now displayed proudly at his house! The one regret I have is that the seller, obviously tipped off to the fact that he had a captive audience (based on the fact that I had to ask him for his contact information to give to my friend), tried to rip him off by quoting him a higher price than was on the price tag… did he not think that I would have told my friend the listed price from seeing it in person?! I hate that the seller did that, but ultimately it was too cool a piece for my friend to pass up, and hopefully he agrees.

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
