I want that" Nipper" the dog  statue...........

[Opcom]

I think that Nipper went for $60. They show up regularly at VRPS auctions.

[Todd, KA1KAQ]

They've got a life-sized Nipper guarding the door at the Friendly Toast in Portsmouth, NH or still did the last time I was there in 2005. Think it was made out of plastic, probably 60s-70s vintage.

[WBear2GCR]

There is a 35-40ft high Nipper on top of the former RCA building here in smAlbany NY!

But yeah, I wanted that little nippah statue!

B,

Nice to see it being painted. It was looking a bit hangdog in '05.
