Elmer Kieth

A week or so ago, between Colorado and Oregon elk hunts, I was doing penance, took Susan shopping for antiques. Found this bronze sculpture of Elmer Kieth holding two elephant tusks. $10,000, (its real ivory). I like his stories, but not that much.

Ah, buy it. You only live once. It's only money. They print more of the stuff every day.

I've always been a fan of Elmer Keith.
I agree with you, not interested in any statues at crazy prices.

When I was a kid I read 'Hell, I Was There' so many times the cover started falling off.

In New York State, that statue could not be sold due to the NYS laws against trading in ivory. I have read articles where NYS has destroyed tons of ivory the state has confiscated. I don't know if it is even legal to own or possess ivory in NYS. But, it certainly can NOT be sold.
