Now that's a gremlin bell. I think I'll stick it to my tank.

You can to that. It's a refrigerator magnet from:

Marie Laveau House Of Voodoo, 739 Bourbon St, New Orleans, LA 70116. Phone: (504) 581-3751

But there also appears to be a store by the same name across the street at 714 Bourbon St. which may be Bloody Mary's Mystery Tours, (504) 915-7774.

Someone needs to ride down there and check it out. (I would, but it's 1900 miles)

A friend gave it to me a couple years ago with several other voodoo objects from New Orleans. It's currently on my Fridge.

DOH! Didn't look to see where the photo was hosted.

So is it a photo or a scan? If you do a better scan I'm about to send off for decal paper. ;D

I've been to Marie's several times. Used to live exactly 60 miles east of the French Quarter. Odds are you CAN get that as a decal from them already. Cool shop, some of the voodoo queen's possessions are still there, and she's been dead for an awfully long time.

This is a photo of the magnet. I can take it to work and scan it tomorrow. I'll let you know.

Another thing I got from Marie's is a shellacked real frog, standing upright, nailed to a wooden base.

He has his jaw sewn shut (pity), and he's got a stringless guitar (again, pity) nailed to his hands.

There's a tag that says "Mexcan Day of the Dead House Blessing". I'll see it I can shoot that, too.

He's currently standing on top of a can of Heinz Spotted D1CK :o(!) from England. Label is pretty striking here in the Southern US, but it appears to be an English equivalent of what we would call bread puddin with raisins. It will never be opened by me.

Maybe the London Savages can expound on spotted d1ck.

I can hear sluggo already...
