I saw one in the front lobby of Rippley's museum NYC. Sorry, don't have any pics. I don't know why...I should have clicked one.
Thanks FUA for the info.
I tried a quick google search for its image at Ripley's museum, NYC but have not succeeded so far. I will try to make a deeper search and if I find a photo of same I will definitely include it.
All the best and thanks once again for the info.

Thank you Chris. Great find. I will include it soon in the collection and needless to say give you the credit.
Thanks once again.
These are based on a ca 1960 in-home decoration but I don't know who the original artist was. I have made a few using a standard water tap and clear plastic tubing. You can see one in the Jack Lemmon movie "The Apartment" (1960)
