Well, I dunno' ... would you buy a shrunken head? Especially if you knew for a fact that it was real? I doubt I would, unless it was for a specific reason - like doing some kind of 'show and tell' for a school course or presentation.

Come to think of it, I don't think I'd accept one if it was given free of charge.

No, I don't think for one minute that I would accept a shrunken head, even of Hitler, or the Moors Murderers.

However, I did, until recently, have a Vicorian stuffed Kingfisher, under a glass dome....on my sideboard. At first, I thought, well, it died a long time ago.....it looks in keeping with the rest of the Victorian house.....but eventually, I gave it to my boss at work to sell in his antiques outlet......'cos it just wasn't right. This also happened with with some ivory carvings....I was just seduced by their beauty when they were offered to me for sale....then I couldn't believe I did that. I meant to sell them and pass on the profit to the RSPCA, or donkey sanctuary or something....but eventually, I gave them away...free gratis and for nothing.

It was very, very good for my Karma.
