I found this item a few months ago and bought it just because I thought it
is so CUTE! Actually, I thought it was a wolf until I got it home and
realized it's a collectable! This little golfer keepsake pedigree puppy,
#1382, was sculptured and hand painted by world-famous doll designer, Jan
Shackleford. It's called a "Janimal". I was able to contact Ms. Shackleford
and she told me it is a one of a kind that originally sold for $130.00 in
1997. She wrote that if it is in good condition [its in excellent
condition] it should bring in a nice tidy sum for the NYA!
Since it is unique I asked my sister to put it on eBay versus bringing it to
the convention for the Huntington's Disease National Youth Alliance [NYA] to
include in their 2006 Silent Auction. We're hoping a larger audience on
eBay might bring in some nice money for the NYA!
If you collect dolls or know a golfer who might enjoy this as a gift, please
bid on it and help the NYA at the same time. Except for the cost to list
this item on eBay, the money this item brings will go towards NYA 2006
Silent Auction.
To view the item go to http://search.ebay.com/Janimal_W0QQfromZR40 and click
on Janimal or hopefully this short URL will take you directly to the page:
http://snipurl.com/q6ge. If neither of these work, go to www.ebay.org and
do a search for Janimal.
Tell your friends and family too! The auction ends Sunday, May 14th
[Mother's Day].
Thank you!
Love
Jan
