svrocket

Svrocket is the replica of an object we suspect fell from the sky sometime in March 2001. The object was scooped from a 10 foot crater by a farmer in deepest Wisconsin on a chilly Friday morning. So far, no one could figure out its origin; some say it is Russian, others say it’s American. There is even a claim it could be from another planet. One thing we know for sure; the sample you just bought was made in China.

We were amazed by reports that Svrocket was still moving back and forth when it was plucked from the bottom of the crater, hot and smoldering. We thought it was completely useless, until we realized there is a small piece of wire shaped like a sphere on the top, where you can clip a note, a picture, or a card.

You can wind up Svrocket half way and let it display the note standing up. Or, you can wind it all the way and let Svrocket tumble back and forth, exactly as it was found inside its very own crater.

PS: The original Svrocket may have survived re-entry and impact, but, this replica, isnÕt meant for that, so, please try to keep it from falling off the table.

Enjoy!
