Harmony Kingdom Wishful Thinking Version 2 TJTU2 Turtle Peter Calvesbert Archive

Wishful Thinking, created by Peter Calvesbert, is inspired by Traddles, the Perrys' pet tortoise, and depicts Titan celebrating his 150th birthday.

The mouse peers above the Good Luck Son card and the cavity is shaped like a bassinet. Could the birthday turtle be planning a family? This Archive example is Version II, with running shoes inside and the name of Titan's discoverer on the interior lid; the official record also documents several under-table variations.

Carved in 1997, Wishful Thinking was made in England and released January 1, 1998. It retired September 1, 1999 with an edition size of 17,170.
