How will you recall the Foot and Mouth
Epidemic?
Now Frankly Minging Ltd brings you the
ultimate in commemorative prints and figurines to help you
remember and celebrate this unique event in modern
history.
Each of our limited edition, artifacts
has been hand-crafted by disease-free artisans for your
total delight. Production is strictly limited to the number
of healthy animals needlessly culled to satisfy purely
economic interests. Both the ceramic statues and limited
edition prints are a cast iron investment that can only
appreciate in years to come.
For only £1500 you can build up a
unique collection chronicling the spread of the epidemic
through the country and the knee-jerk closure of rights of
way. Every month a new statuette will bring sunshine and joy
into your life.

The Figurines
Each ceramic statuette has been lovingly
created by skilled artists before being remodelled in
highest quality clay and fired for three days over a
slow-burning pyre of pointlessly culled animals. There are
12 beautiful figurines in the series, including:
• Phoenix Meets Nick
The calf who changed government policy is
depicted in a meeting with agriculture minister Nick Brown.
Tremendous detailing includes an authetic Sun logo branded
into Phoenix's newly shampooed hide.
• Cow Pyre Oil
Burner
A delightful oil burner in the shape of a
pile of burning cattle carcasses. When lit, the smoke from
the burner authentically recreates the ambience of a genuine
post-slaughter pyre. Incredible realism
• Right of Way Closed
Sign
A genuine closure sign recreated in top
quality ceramic complete with genuine striped 'No Access'
tape. The idea gift for walkers, climber and mountain bikers
who can tape over their front doors as a constant and
poignant reminder of what a mishandled crisis means to them
personally.
• Limping Herdwick
Sheep
The last one you'll ever see, but at
least this beautifully crafted full-sized replica will
remind you of what you're missing and remain hefted to your
mantlepiece forever.
