I've probably linked to this site before in one of my guitaroholic posts, but it's worth pulling it back to the surface for another visit. Fetish Guitars is a nicely designed site with plentiful coverage of unusual guitars. Rather than the same old, same old Fenders and Gibsons, FG treats us to the likes of Wandre, Eko, Welson and more. I'll take this triple cutaway, blue marble finish Crucianelli, thanks. And hey, I had one of those Orpheum archtop acoustics, back in the early 90s!
I think that blue-marble finish is what we used to call, "Mother-of-Toiletseat."

Yeah, that stripey marble look is kind of unusual for MOTS. The white pearloid one here is more the usual MOTS pattern:

"straining... for a punchline"
Careful, too much straining can give you a bad case of humorrhoids.
Yeah, the Welson is definitely classic MOTS. I really like those Eko Aurigas too. I'm a total sucker for anything teardrop-shaped.
