Thanks, Fred. You mean that there were a total of fewer than 20 individual orders, right? The family got several samples, of which this is one, so that would add to the total a bit. Do you have a figure for the WaJos sold, or any other interesting information on the series? I did save the original SCD ads, there were only a couple before the company folded. I think there's been at least one thread on the subject, but it's a fascinating story--such a beautiful product, I guess the $900 price point was just too much at that time--and might be still today, based on the fact I haven't sold mine yet!.

Assuming you claimed it.... Congrats, Scott!

That is a beautiful piece and I came close to pulling the trigger on it. If current finances were better, I would've for sure.

Beautiful and rare addition to your marvelous collection! (again, assuming you got it! )

Thanks Mark! Yup, I had to do it.
Really a great looking sculpture of WaJo!
