Frog of the Day


Cairn Studios - Leap Frog

From the Accompanying Paperwork:
(November 1993) Every leap year Kent the gnome and Tad the frog take a trip to the beach. First they check with Halley, the Woodspirit weather wizard, to guarantee a perfect day. Kent, like his hero Superman, dreams of leaping over tall buildings. His friend Tad is too small for such grandiose ambitions, but no matter - they're having a ball. There's something about the sand and the surf that just makes them jump for joy. Perhaps they can persuade the frogs Hawthorne and Bob to join in their jumping jamboree. The Woodspirits Justin and Carl are also the right height for this game. Leaping lizards - what a long leap frog line that would be! There's a game token in the sand that says "Fun and Games," the description of a perfect vacation for these two best friends. Sculpted by Tom Clark and Tim Wolfe, "Leap Frog" is part of the Kindred Spirits Collection by Cairn Studios, LTD.

The inventory number of this piece is 2501. This is a limited edition and the number of my piece is 80. Tim Wolfe has also signed this piece on the back of one of the frogs legs. This is a great piece from Cairn Studios and I love adding their frogs to my collection.
