" TSUNAMI REMEMBRANCE " Annette Petersen created this 2005 limited edition TSUNAMI REMEMBRANCE piece to honor those lost in the tragedy in Indonesia. Production of this piece will end March of 2006. A realistic symbol of the event, this piece shows a Red Cross nurse holding the hand of a small child. The small child seems to be in awe of what’s happened. Nurse Mouse has her white hat with the Red Cross insignia. She wears a blue dress with a white pinafore apron with pocket. She is carrying her black "RN" bag. The little child beside her has a hand to her mouth as if expressing disbelief of what’s around her.

| The
little one is wearing a soft blue dress with a colorful
patch. They are standing on a sandy beach.
|
| Marks
of authenticity are on the bottom of the piece: the inked
initials "AP", an imprint which reads "2005 Wee Forest Folk"
and a large gold oval sticker which reads "2005
TSUNAMI REMEMBRANCE."

" WAYSIDE CHAT
" Wayside Chat is #7 of the Forest Scenes series and was created by William Petersen in 1994. The piece was permanently retired in 2003. In this vignette, Mousey has taken a break from his work and is perched atop a rock wall. He is chatting with Miss Mouse who has been gathering apples in her basket. Mousey is dressed in his work clothes – grey overalls with suspenders and a blue bandana handkerchief peeks out of his back pocket. He has taken a large bite out of the apple he holds in his hand. Miss Mouse wears a dark red dress with a pale yellow pinafore style apron, and has a basket of apples tucked under her arm.
|
| They seem engrossed
in conversation. Mousey’s work tool, a scythe, is
leaning against the rock wall beside him. It stands amidst
some flowers and greenery: yellow hollyhocks and blue star
flowers.
|
|
At the back of the rock wall is a unique touch – the year of
issue and artist’s name is ETCHED into the large rock at the
base of the wall. The bottom of the piece has all the marks
of authenticity: the inked initials "WP", the white artist &
year of issue sticker and the gold WFF sticker. An
added BONUS is a large gold oval sticker with the NAME OF
THE PIECE.
Wayside Chat comes to you in mint condition with the original box and has lived in a smoke free home. This WFF figurine is priced at $ 175, plus $ 7 for shipping and full insurance with the United States Postal Service. |
