These Chinese figures represent the three universal aspirations. In the photo (from left to right) are Fu, with his scroll symbolizing prosperity; Shou, with a staff and peach, representing the signs and pleasures of longevity; and Lu, with the winged hat and other symbols of high office, evoking power. (Figures are in glass domes, each about 33/8" high, shown atop their box case; gift of Barry Karr, CSICOP Executive Director, who brought themhome from China in 1988.)
