This was a gift purchased at a thrift shop. I am so pleased it is mine! The day after it was purchased the shop was destroyed by fire.

I love that this tuxedo cat has a beard & mustache, very cool kitty
I found a collection of LeRoy's photos in an old house I bought. They seem to be taken in tropical island settings near the equator. Very cool pictures.
BuddyBlack, What a treasure trove.
