Ok, so after much harassing, my big sister finally sent me a pic I've been bugging her for.
I've mentioned it in passing before, but I'd really like to nail down this grail in the next year as I'd like to recreate the pic with my little girl. So, as you can see by the pic, it's a huge inflatable "monster" hand.
This picture was taken in 1970, so being as it's a 1960's "monster" related item, I'm not expecting to get it dirt cheap. But, I hope it doesn't mean as much to others as it does to me and I won't have to pay out the ***. However, it is my number 1 grail at the moment, and I won't be a cheap skate if somebody happens to have one. PM me if you do, please.

also, a bit of discription on the one I'd most like to get. I'm not sure if they came in multiple colours, but this one was either yellow with purple fingernails, or purple with yellow fingernails. It wasn't a "beach accessory" as I've been thinking (my sister told me a story about how she almost drowned with it on), so it was probably a Halloween costume/party supply? Was purchased at a head shop by my dad (found this out today).
I'd imagine sellers may list as "King Kong hand" as you're the "Faye Ray" when you put it on. If anybody see's one listed please let me know.
Again, I'd really appreciate anybody contacting me if they have one for sale or any info (maker, year, etc). Thanks!-Andy

Sorry, can't help you though, this is the first time I've ever seen anything like that. Hope you can find one though, because it would be really neat to recreate the pic with your daughter. So your dad was hitting the head shops, huh? That's the 60's for ya!
