I am glad that such a fine piece is leaving for the old world, especially to such a cultured city as Paris. In recent times the Getty has been envied by European art academics for being able to spend top dollar for rare European artifacts and making them leave the continent, and the Huntington Library here has done the same with one-of-kind documents and scriptures, so this is only a fair reversal of the trend.

I am not so sure that I am comfortable with that moniker, Typsy, but, while I try my darndest to answer questions about Witco here (together with Keigs), I cannot go as far as starting to scan catalogs, or I would sit here all day. And y'all DO want more of my books, dont'cha?

....certainly you must realize that it was in jest....believe me, i could write my own book about the number of monikers folks have labeled me here on t.c. that would make someone other than myself truly uncomfortable...
