During the 1994 Exposition of the Sacred Relics of St Francis Xavier an excellent brochure was brought out by a company called Corporate Communications of Margao, and edited by Diana Pinto. During that Exposition, two terracotta busts of St Francis Xavier, one of about 8 inches and the other of about 5 inches were also produced. These were very good quality products. At that time there was a shop on 18th June Road, Panjim (Near St Paul's Bookshop) selling all these three items.Alas, this shop closed down many years ago.My inquiries, even with handicraft bodies, to purchase some more of these busts have been futile. Who made these in 1994 and why can't they be made now? Best wishes & God bless to all on this great Feast Day!
