I need to know what sites sell cabinet knobs that are shaped like a Pellican.
  Size of knobs:  Must be between 2 inches and 3 1/4 inches in height.
  Composition of knobs:  Must be pewter or of something of a similar color.
I know these sites exist because some time ago they were shown to me -- but I 
lost the list and now I can't find the sites.

Would any of the knobs and pulls I showed you serve your purpose?

Thanks,

Hello Bobbie7,

Wow!  That pelican handle is so great that I'm trying to figure out
where I could use it.  But a pelican knob is what I need.  Concerning
this pelican knob, however, it looks like about half of the knob is a
tree branch, which makes the pelican awfully small.  I need the
pelican to the biggest portion of the knob so it will be more visible
on my cabinet.

I would appreciate it if you could find a pelican knob where the
pelican is the larger part of the knob.  The pelican can be just
sitting, or sitting on something small (maybe on a pier piling or a
rock), or walking, or flying, or whatever.

Thank you for your help.

Dear Shirley,

Thank you for your clarification. Unfortunately I haven't located any
other pelican knobs or pulls.

Have you seen the other pulls I found?

Hello again Bobbie7,

Yes, I'm sorry I forgot to tell you that I did see the pictures of the
last two pelican knobs that you sent me, but they won't work in my
situation because they aren't in the shape of a pelican.

Some time ago, when I was shown some pelican knobs (see origional
message), one was sitting on a pier piling and one was flying.  If you
can find a knob like one of these or another one that has a larger
pelican, my appreciation will be generously expressed.

However, I realize thaqt your time is valuable.  So, if you can't find
any other pelican knobs, I will happily accept that fact and order
from the first two sites you found.

I must say that I really admire your expertise on the Net -- I've been
searching on and off for months without finding ANY pelican knobs.

In any case, thank you for your help.

shB-ga (a.k.a. Shirley)

Dear Shirley,

I'll try once more to locate another pelican knob for you. If I don't
find anything else, I'll post the links to the ones I did find.

Thanks again,
Bobbie7

Dear Bobbie7

It is very nice of you to take another look for a knob with a larger
pelican.  I hope to hear good news from you soon but, whatever the
outcome, I'll still be grateful for what you have already found.

Good Luck,

Shirley

Bobby7-ga's has fantastic Web-searching skills.  It was amazing.  I
had searched the Net for pelican shaped knobs many times and found
nothing, but Bobbie7-ga found them shortly after I posted my query. 
Thank you Bobby7-ga, you'll never know how much I appreciate your
help.         shB (a.k.a. Shirley)

Bobbie7-ga, that's definitely pewter looking. The site is neat! I'm
not going to spoil it ... well... You should just go ahead and answer.
