Gurkha Statues

John Powell · Dec 4, 2002

Anyone interested in getting a GREAT Gurkha statue here is the place to contact: http://www.wiltshire-web.co.uk/pha/

The ones I have are about 8-9" high (without very nice bases) and beautifully detailed. Prices a couple of years ago was about $120. Don't know about shipping because I got one on eBay and one as a gift.

The site doesn't show them (there's about 12 different types), but they have very good price sheets and photos.

Worth every dime and after all, it's time to start bugging Santa for your toys.

Period : World War I
The Ghurkas were in transit by Marseille before to rejoin the battle front in France. Thanks to them.
I have a few others photos. I will not have the time to scan them this weekend, but I'll do it, and post them in the Forum, as soon as I can.

Best,

I got a kick out of "Hindus" in France. Thanks again for interesting stuff.
