THE STORY:  This fun and intricately printed ornament features the A16 70's logo created for the Holidays. It was made from a piece of log salvaged from one of the A16 shops shortly after the physical stores were closed.  The hanger is a leather cord. It was hand made with care by John D. Mead who hopes it will hang on your tree and remind you of a trip or two that you made to A16 to do your holiday shopping back in the day. 

This item is made from a full round log pole which was repurposed from a custom shelving rail once used in an A16 shop.  Because of this, each ornament is unique and you should expect to find certain natural and other blemishes including splitting and other natural defects in the wood. If you're lucky, you may see small holes were a nail or beetle once lived.  If only the log slice could talk. It would tell you about it's life in a forest in NW Montana, it's move to SoCal, and all the fun it had literally hanging out at A16 for many a year.
