Hmm, that's rather disturbing! I hope he is well. He has a separate website but I don't see a contact link....
Very interesting portrait style and design! I would not have guessed that it was a Rome issue.
Green tape? Yeah, I'm familiar. [ATTACH] Good to know my stuffing is safe! :rolleyes: :D (part of an... "eclectic"... box of gifts from my mom)
The lots you're looking at haven't closed yet. They might end up higher than you want to pay. There's still another day of bidding and in the...
