I'm traveling, and don't have access to my book collection, but had a few random moments to kill, and went poking. This photo of the Cerceda pig in the Origami Database: http://origamidb.stagepics.co.uk/displayphoto.asp?ModelID=2580 argues that it is not that pig, unless the artist who did the drawing of the restaurant's logo went to the trouble of adding a bunch of arbitrary creaselines. (Which, while not impossible, seems odd to have done.) Or that there is more than one Cerceda pig, also possible. Am not finding the Yoshizawa pig in the ODB at all - but lots of his work isn't entered there - so I can't compare directly with any of those. Anne
