Raiders of the lost Ark Indy

Here’s my sole survivor of my childhood toys; a Kenner Raiders of the Lost Ark Indiana Jones. His whip and pistol have long since vanished.



-Nate

All the more precious...!

Great looking fig Nate, and all the more special he survived from your childhood! I'm sure you could find him a pistol and whip on ebay?

Is that a vintage chalkware (plaster of paris) "radio lamp" off to screen left? I can't tell what the figure is; it almost looks like an elephant! If it's a chalkware lamp, is there any chance you have a pic?

Looks like a man on a horse to me!

Not the same vintage as your figure, but for this price you could swap out the pistol and whip?

Derrrr...!!! Obviously a rider on a horse, now that you point it out!

I actually had a colourful chalkware elephant complete with mahout and howdah.
It was bequeathed to me by my maternal Grandmother, "because I liked it as a child". 
The damn thing was HUGE!
A true "white elephant", it lived in my attic (back when I had one) for years, only ever brought out as a very impressive table centre when I had a curry type buffet, but it sadly came to grief at the hands of a "helpful" moving assistant.
A million irretrievable pieces.
That stuff has become quite valuable now.
