CONGRADULATIONS A NICE CLUB WITH GOOD WORKMANSHIP AND IN PERFECT CONDITION.
THERE HAVE BEEN FERTILITY CEREMONIES FOR CROPS, LIVESTOCK OR CHILDREN TO MAKE THE TRIBE STRONG AND CONTINUE THE FAMILY SINCE BEFORE RECORDED HISTORY. IT IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR MANS CREATIONS TO RESEMBLE THE ACTUAL OBJECTS INVOLVED . THESE CEREMONIES FOR LUCK OR TO GAIN THE FAVOR OF THEIR GOD OR GODS WERE COMMON TO MANY SOCIETYS. SOME OBJECTS SERVED OTHER PURPOSES SUCH AS WAR CLUB , ECT. AND OTHERS WERE ONLY FOR CEREMONY.
THE SMALL PHALLIC AX IN A PREVIOUS POST MAY HAVE BEEN ONE OF THESE OBJECTS USED ONLY FOR CEREMONY. IT DIDN'T STRIKE ME AS SOMETHING THAT WOULD HAVE ENJOYED WIDE POPULARITY WITH TOURISTS.
PRICES ON GOOD CLUBS HAVE TAKEN A BAD TURN FOR COLLECTORS OF (LIMITED MEANS= (ANYONE WHO IS NOT A MULTI MILLIONARE) ONCE THEY MOVE FROM EBAY OR THE GUN SHOWS AND ENTER THE ETHINOGRAPHIC ART GALLERY OR WORLD OF SOUTHBYS AND CHRISTIES ECT THEY ARE LOST FOREVER TO MIDDLE CLASS COLLECTORS.
EVEN EBAY PRICES HAVE BEEN ARTIFICIALLY INFLATED I HAVE SEEN CLUBS I BID A FAIR PRICE ON SAY 3 TO 4 HUNDRED REAPPEAR ON EBAY FOR 1 TO 2 THOUSAND. IF YOUR PURPOSE IN COLLECTING IS FOR INVESTMENT ITS NOT A GOOD TIME TO INVEST IN CLUBS BETTER TO BUY GOLD.
