Introducing Slippery Boyle, Traveling Salesman, and his beautiful assistant Edwina!



Slippery and Edwina travel the West, selling snake-oils and cure-alls to small-town folk who are easily parted with their money. Like all good Medicine Men, Slippery puts on a show to gather the townspeople in the village square. He then sings the praises of his wares, which are garuenteed to cure everything from swollen toes to baldness. While Slippery finishes the show, Edwina quietly slips to the side to rake in money from the hoards of newly won customers. When business is concluded, Slippery and Edwina pack up the truck and move on to the next unsuspecting town.

Special thanks to my lovely and talented girlfriend, Christy, for suggesting the money spilling out of Edwina’s apple-crate counter, and for some suggestions regarding the truck.

As always, comments appreciated!

Hi Elroy Brilliant! I love the way the sides of the van roll down to form the stage. Very authentic looking and a great addition to the Adventurers theme. Yeah, definitely love this MOC. Chris (21 years ago, 23-May-04, to lugnet.town, lugnet.trains, lugnet.western, lugnet.adventurers, FTX)
