….was burbling on about label makers in the comments section of a recent post when I remembered these… a pre-lockdown find at the local dump-shop….


…bargains at $4 each….


…could use those lovely bulging plastic frames for some form of art skullduggery…..
…then I noticed the over-labelling….


…kiwiana repurposed hand built diorama madness!…
…did they just make two?….
…did they have a little shop at the base of the mountain?….
…here they are out of the frames (carefully) for clarity….


….(and you all KNOW how conflicted I am….shall I peel the labels to see what they housed originally…should I be considering filling them with dioramas of my own?….how many more did the original perpetrator make?…do I have the whole set?….are these valuable examples of pre- mass produced kiwi keepsakes?…..soooo conflicted…did I mention “how many did they make”?)….
…(guess I could hang onto them till after lockdown….if you lean in real close and squint it’s almost like being in the mountains)….
What is under that label??!!! How will I sleep now??? 🙂
Yes, yes, who knows, nope don’t know,don’t know that either, no you didn’t but you have now, the answer is still don’t know.
It might say Aoraki underneath, that’s history for yez.
