A lot of that sort of stuff is sold as postcards. Here's another one:

That's nice.

I had noticed this one a while ago.

... and a more famous one. The Beatles may have seen this one in Liverpool in their youth, aspiring artists as some of them were.

Keep 'em coming. I gotta go, too many whistles on the bench.

That one made me laugh so hard I have a stitch in my side. :lol:

I thought Stitch only played pipes (and slack key guitar). Who knew.

If we have to go all fairy like and such, I offer Jentheflute, the original

I suppose Sailor Moon images will be next.

Back to the bench.

Can't think of any whistlers in sculpture around here, I know of pipers, fiddlers, bodhran players even but no whistler comes immediately to mind.

There's this though:

And there's postal whistles:

I include one of Ollie Longuet's paintings, because I like them, the music paintings as well as the surfing and general West of Ireland ones. Couldn't immediately find a whistle player. Plenty of fluteplayers though. And pipers:

Some people work so obviously from a photograph they even copy the ugly shadow of a direct flash. What are they thinking? I have also seen a few pieces of artwork where the microphone obscuring hands or faces in photographs were copied. Well, anyway..
