This "authentic cased shrunken head" will soon be up for auction at Red Baron Collectible Antiques Gallery. I was curious about how "authentic" it is, so I called the gallery. The women I spoke to told me right off the bat that it is an "animal head." I asked if she knew what kind of animal. She said she did not, and added that the gallery has very little information about the piece. She expects it to sell in the range of $1200-$1500.
