Blind Mullet is 100 years old. He swims up and down the mighty River Murray and is king of the river. He has fought and won many battles. His teeth are missing because he is blind and eats junk food, his belly is full of number plates, boat propellars, fishing rods, gumboots, barbie dolls, blind has even eaten a pirate copy of the movie 'Jaws'. He has lots of female mullets in his harem and is constantly challenged by younger, fitter, better looking carp - But Blind is still the king of the river. He survives by eating the discarded junk found along the river beds and waterways, his favorite junk food is number plates. Standing 1.5 meters in height this distinctive wire, funny junk art sculpture, is a must have for serious collectors of junk art/funny junk art.
