We need the funk, gotta have that funk.

Normally I would fight to the death to protect a P-funk album, but this one played no more. What better way to continue spreading the funk than to sport this comb?!

The vintage goody comb plus the record center is 3 inches tall and about 3.5 inches at its widest. Please keep in mind that my model is only 6 years old, the comb would look a little different on an adult sized head.

One small step for recyclers...

This bracelet was made from a recycled LP that, believe it or not used to be green. Now it is black. The grooves are no longer visible because I almost burnt this to a crisp. I would like to say that I did it on purpose, but that would be too convenient.

Because it melted it has taken on a glass-like appearance.

Will fit a 6.5 - 7.5 inch wrist but can be resized, just contact me with your measurements.
