Resin Based Piggy Bank

These 100% resin cast money-banks were cast from a demised piglet (we're assured it died of natural causes)! A large cork stopper under the belly should help to contain the $10000's it guarantees to hold in single dollar bills. Available in fuscia or white. Reality is the first series of Harry Allen Products. The series consists of objects whose form is 'sampled' from existing sources. Literal, ironic, intelligent and functional!

Photo in the News: Hogzilla Is No Hogwash

Hogzilla lives! Well, he used to, anyway, according to scientists in a National Geographic Explorer documentary that confirmed the massive swine's existence Sunday night.
Georgia hunting guide Chris Griffin (pictured with Hogzilla) shot the allegedly 12-foot (3.7-meter), 1,000-pound (454-kilogram) hog in June 2004. Ever since, the controversy has ballooned along with the legend. Some critics cried hoax. Others said Hogzilla was a homebody: Domestic pigs can grow to 1,000 pounds. Wild ones rarely exceed 500 pounds (228 kilograms).
Scientists working with the National Geographic Society dug up the swine in November 2004 to analyze his remains and test his DNA. Hogzilla, they announced on Sunday's documentary, was part wild boar and part domestic pig. The experts estimated that he would have weighed only about 800 pounds (363 kilograms) and measured about 8 feet (2.4 meters).
Hogzilla's tusks—one nearly 18 inches (46 centimeters)—set a North American Safari Club International record. But it's a dubious distinction. Such length, one scientist said, could only have been achieved in a pen. So the jury is still out on whether Hogzilla was wild at heart or a pig in a poke.
