Apparently several replicas have been made! But they'll set you back something like £25 on the internet, which is pretty dear compared to the 99p I payed. God bless British charity shops.

Speaking of which, I forgot to mention that I also saw 4 "Lord of the Rings" oil paintings for £80. I thought they were slightly crap and had no idea what was going on in them, but still quite cool.
