interesting photos from Rods and Sods







the wagon wheels sorta throw me... there aren't any indications of an engine, or horse hookups, so is this mechaincal? Or just gravity drive?



Cool signature gimmick, the Moon Eyes




Lions and bears pulling this cart.. .. makes me wonder how those sheep are dealing with the team mates on the pull

best christmas tree ever?
