Holding a huge (plastic) bakalava square. A retired Air Force Captain bought him from his grandfather's auto parts store in Indiana in the 1970s. He had the military reimburse his shipping costs to Italy. He declared his man as household goods! He is in the right stance but the hands seemed a little off. The left a little lower than the right. But we can't remember if he had been damaged or not. The owner told us about it during lunch while we were on leave from Germany.

May 2004 update - The directions are not good - eg., casanova has two houses (birthplace and later home). Think we located the area (also, no one knows whereanything is, and streets canals are narrow ill-marked with no lines of sight), but two buildings had been demolished. that is where I think it was, if it was ever here.
