True North Prototype

The school offers children an education in academia, sports, and knowledge of the self. This facility provides funded education for children who otherwise would have little hope of any that would meet Western standards.
Most schools in India are privately funded and in desperate need of contributions. Money raised from this auction will provision equipment and educational tools, such as new technology and text books.
The prototype being offered was carved by Ann Richmond. This particular item was made in the UK. The outside of the piece features colors different from the retail edition. The only hallmark on the piece is that of Ann Richmond. The most noticeable difference is the interior. In this prototype, a snowmobiler, wearing the initials "JV" with a F1 insignia, lies face up in the snow having just crashed into a brick sign that reads "Jacque's Happy." Could this be Jacques Villeneuve, the famous Canadian Formula One racer?
True North is the first Canadian exclusive Harmony Kingdom Box Figurine, distributed by Canadian Distributors Amyot & Watt, available only from HK dealers in Canada. Martin Perry has signed both the base and the lid, authenticating it as a Harmony Kingdom prototype. The item is free of nicks, cracks, or other damage.
Payment in US dollars by money order or bank draft, made out to The Samvit Sagar Trust, for the amount of the winning bid. Buyer pays shipping and insurance with a second money order or bank draft, payable to HK House of Peers, sent to the HOP Treasurer. Personal checks cannot be accepted.
The item will ship within one business day of receipt of payment. Your Samvit Sagar Trust donation will be forwarded to them within one business day of receipt, with a letter from the HK House of Peers acknowledging your contribution.
