Michael Rugg of the Bigfoot Discovery Museum has passed along the news that he’s selling some of his Bigfoot sculptures. (Too bad there’s no one driving from California to Maine with a truck to carry one of ’em out to Portland, Maine’s International Cryptozoology Museum. We could save one of these pieces for public display on the East Coast.)
If you are seriously interested, please consider Mike’s following ad that is now in Craigslist:
Bigfoot – sasquatch life-sized models (9.5′ tall) made for the Bigfoot Mystery Museum in Seattle in 1976, and currently on display at the Bigfoot Discovery Museum in Felton, California. Head/neck, torso, hips/legs and arms are indusrial paper mache covered in brown faux fur cloth. The hands are styrofoam, the feet cement and the face is wax. We have two available for sale: (1) prime condition $999, (2) needs repairs $499. Must be picked up (can’t be shipped)
Since you have to pick up the piece you might buy and thus you may wish to see it in person, here’s the address and contact info:

About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
