SEG Jug Hustler (September 1998)

Ever on the lookout for new sources offunding, the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) has come up with an innovativescheme.

A ‘world-renowned’ sculpter, one Jay O’Meilia has been commissioned to produce a seven foot high statue of a jug hustler (a lowly planter of geophones). The statue is to be financed by the sale of 100 maquettes (18 inch high replicas) which are to be sold at the modest price of $2,500 a pop, from which $1,000 is donated to the SEG fund – leaving a cool $150,000 for the mighty hustler! Any prospective hustlees talk to the SEG on www.seg.org!
