Three Wise Monkeys Statue by Meissen

weighs 2.8 kg (over 6 pounds). It is a limited edition of 25
pieces. The camouflage color is quite unusual. The list price of
16.500,00 Euro (approx. 18.100 US$) certainly helps to ensure that
it will remain a very exclusive item. More…..

40 years of
collecting the three wise monkeys
|
|
Forty years ago,
on October 11, 1978 your webmaster bought his first three wise
monkey set in an Emporium Retail Store in Hong Kong. Since that
time, the collection has grown to over 3600 No Evil sets.
Statistically seen, over all these years, the collection grew with
an average of almost 8 sets per month. And still, this considerable
total quantity represents only a fraction of all No Evil sets
available in this world. Here are some panorama photos of part of
the collection, taken about 5 years ago. Panorama

Message from
the Dutch National Library (Koninklijke Bibliotheek)
|
|
“The fact
that websites such as "digital heritage" are worth
preserving is internationally recognized in the 2003 UNESCO Digital
Heritage Charter. It notes that the digital heritage can be lost and
urgently must be retained for use by current and future generations
of scientists.
As a
national library, the Koninklijke Bibliotheek is legally responsible for the
collection, description and storage of publications published in
the Netherlands, whether electronic or not. The KB sees it as its
task to keep websites sustainable and accessible to future
generations and to protect them from losses due to technological
aging.
For this
reason, the KB archives websites that present a representative
image of Dutch culture, history and society on the Internet as a
collection.
Your website
www.three-monkeys.info
will be permanently archived and stored for this purpose. Archiving
will take place for the first time from 21st September 2018. Thereafter, successive

The three
Monkeys of Mahatma Gandhi
|
|
A recent newspaper
article in the Times of India confirms that also in India there
still is much confusion about the whereabouts of the three-monkey
figurine that Mahatma Gandhi has possessed. (Please note that “teen
bandar” means three monkeys in the local
language). Two “official”
photos showing Gandhi’s last possessions, well-known to many
3-monkey collectors, can be found on the website of the Indian
Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. But there is no mention
as to where these items are located. Photo

Postcards with no evil geishas

Japan to send postcards with three hear see and speak no evil
geishas to friends and relatives all over the world. At that time,
the No Evil symbol was not yet very well known in the rest of the world.
Most probably these postcards have greatly contributed to the
worldwide popularity of the Hear, See and Speak No Evil
proverb. More…..
