Sorry folks and Alice, I posted a reply to this about how St Paul Minnesota USA has been doing blanks of Charles Schultz comic characters for years and sent a link. However I sent it to Alice only LOL. So, here is the link...go there. They are great and all different. To anyone not familiar with Charles Schultz...he is the creator of the comic strip "Peanuts" with Snoopy and Charlie Brown. The link will take you to see the Snoopy Statues. They have also done Charlie Brown, Lucy and a few others. I have yet to find links to these. I am still looking though. Will pass them along. All these statues are decorated and adorned by artists. Some are sponsored by business's (they are pretty obvious LOL) and all are auctioned off for charity (some are bought back by the companies that sponsored them)
