As I live at least 400km away from any coast I have to rely on old holiday photos and pictorial representations of sea creatures. In all cases, these were “out of their element”.

You have done well, as Margaret says. I love the old shops that have an animal or sign outside to indicate their line of product. In this case, a fish. They are wonderful structures and sadly, we don’t see them anymore. Was this one is the Netherlands, somewhere or Germany?

In Germany, in Lüneburg in the North. All over the town they have these painted fishes. – But as for signs in front of restaurants and shops: Around here is an old inn which has a boar made of copper hanging upside down over the entrance. I am pretty sure that when I was small it was a real boar, regularly replaced.

A real boar? That is amazing! Just the head, I assume? I am glad they changed it to a sign, but why hanging upside down?

I THINK it was a whole boar, slung up by the hinds. But it is a memory from childhood and I haven’t verified it.
