The Egg-basket of the Midwest

The Mentone Egg, 1946, Hugh Rickley, sculptor

Mentone is the self-proclaimed "Egg Basket of the Midwest" because of its prolific commercial egg production in the area.

This egg-sculpture (1360 kg) proclaims Mentone’s status as the “Egg Basket” of the Midwest. Poultry and eggs are the basis of the economy in this sharp little town of nearly 100, and much of the town’s lore and history revolve around the egg.

Egg-ceptional Fun
At the beginning of June, Mentone comes alive with its annual Egg Festival: three days of entertainment, sporting events, arts and crafts, car shows and an egg-citing parad.

New Moon Watch: The Cosmic Egg

The Sabian symbol for last night’s solar eclipse is one of the most evocative in the series, and mirrors Obama’s emergence as a symbol for a new form of leadership in the United States.

The symbol for seven degrees Aquarius is: A child is seen being born out of an egg. Rudhyar writes (An Astrological Mandala: The Cycle of Transformation and its 360 Degree Symbolic Phase.) that this marks the materialization of a “global man for the New Age.” Considering Obama’s ascendancy, and his political impact on the cross-cultural, world stage — the synchronicity is potent. Rudhyar explains that the “ancient symbolism of the Cosmic Egg out of which a new universe is born can be interpreted at several levels. Here we see the appearance of a new type of human being who is not born from “Ancestors” and who therefore is free from the inertia of mankind’s past. He is a new product of evolution, a mutant.”

The Egg and Jerry

The Egg and Jerry begins with a mother woodpecker leaving her nest for a brief lunch. The egg that she was nesting jumps up in her absence and falls to the ground, rolling into Jerry's mousehole and into his bed. Jerry wakes up to find himself sitting on the egg, which begins to hatch. Out comes a baby woodpecker who instantly takes to Jerry as his mother. The adorable, but naturally, peckish woodpecker cannot resist pecking away at Jerry's furniture.

Egg-stone Mouse

This mouse stone was designed by the Russian design studio Neko. It gives the impression that the stones were cut and pasted on a hull, which is probably the case. Harm, it would have liked to believe in a dinosaur egg.
Imagine if you installed a nice office on business... the result can be truly class, in the style retro.

A Dali inspired melted VINYL RECORD EGG

Here in the middle of the Mojave Desert, it can get really hot. "How hot?" you ask. Hot enough to fry a record on the sidewalk!

Fun photos by Botielus aside, I don't recommend you display this particular egg outside, as it may melt even more. And then it wouldn't balance over the edge just so, as it does now. To make matters stickier, I glued a grippy strip of black rubber on the underside, so it can even hang loose off a smooth ledge without slipping.

The LP was released by "Manic Scenes" in 1985 on The Weird Turn Pro Records, and the label may be read in its original cholesterol yellow state, sealed with a couple layers of clearcoat. I did the back one too, so the artwork is water-resistant and may be wiped occasionally with a damp cloth to keep it dust-free.

Eggs

Nine-year-old David has been living with his grandmother since his mother's accidental death. Still in pain, he's determined not to make friends in his new town. He takes his anger out on his grandmother and forms a close albeit abrasive relationship with 13-year-old Primrose who lives next door with her fortuneteller single mother. They forge a tight yet tumultuous friendship that thrust them into adventures from late-night treasure hunts in the neighbors' trash, to a highly competitive search for night crawlers, to an overnight hike to Philadelphia. The friendship helps both deal with what is missing in their lives.
