That's exactly what they are. Terry Nails had an idea when they were doing the molds and all of a sudden ran out the door and down the street to head shop and came back with a bunch of earings and pressed them into the sandcast molds. |

Same dude got my gnar oldies from.
I also traded him a 100% mint AO pig for a bootleg-ass Hosoi twelve years ago. Fuckin A. |

Early stage 1s with black bushings. Baseplates have the "earrings" but the hangers still have the remnants of the "post"
