shed light on history

These are just candles that depict in wax sculpture infamous/naughty/rude etc acts/events/scenes etc from history. By way of offering a doubly awful pun, I suggest that the Roman Scandle, for example, would perhaps illustrate Nero fiddling while Rome burned. It has its own built-in special flame effect, too.

Any other dreadful wax-related wordplay gratefully received.

       Got one for GWB playing a guitar while New Orleans drowns?

       Banjo surely?

       No, it was a guitar.

       It's so easy to make a dubious scandlestick. Just think of the possibilities for the media!

       This idea is waxy.

       GC, better yet, Mayor "New Orleans will be Chocolate Again" Nagin holding a giant ring of bus keys.
