Abstract

Curious things can happen when we put together two mysterious mermaid fakes from the South Sea, two imaginary American FBI agents, and an ordinary Finnish museum workaer. In an extraordinary way, this combination gave rise to some clues which led to some detective work concerning the origins of the two mermaid fakes in the National Museum of Finland.
