Here are the results of my prowlings for trinkets.

This little mask is actually an ocarina and is only about an inch
and a quarter in width. I found it in one of the shops on
Callejon Diamante in Xalapa.

Another ocarina, about two inches high.

Made in Oaxaca, bought in Xalapa.

A ceramic pitcher I got at the Naolinco market.
Can you believe it was only forty cents?!

But then, it doesn’t hold much.

A rock, painted as a frog by a Xalapa artist.

.

A jarocha dancer, bought in Veracruz, four and one-quarter inches tall

A larger dancer, seven and a half inches tall

Horse carrying firewood, about 4.5 inches tall

Forgot to tell you, I bought a house in Veracruz.

Getting ahead in Veracruz is easy.
