One of the back issues of WCI mag also had some ideas for funny face pumpkin pins. I'm not near my magazine rack or I'd go look for you on what issue it was.

At the NJ show today, I saw a neat looking pumpkin (abour 6"-8"round) with a Santa type beard. It was nicely done - caught my attention right away. Sorry - I did not get a chance to take a photo, but I'm sure you could take it from here.

Speaking of pins - here's an original pumpkin pin I bought from Dennis Thorton for my wife (at least that's what I told her) at the Jersey carving show. Thought you might enjoy seeing it.
