[QUOTE="Mark Reiter, post: 11388021, member: 96824"]Hi Charles, Sorry about that. The editor of Discoveries... has, on several occasions, been negligent in referring readers to me. But thanks for trying! May I ask where you found the portrait? What city? Flea market, thrift store, dumpster diving? And now I'm going to push the envelope and ask you, if you happen to be in communication with the individual to whom you gave the portrait, I would be willing to purchase it from them. OR could they, at least, take a better picture of the portrait - for my Simatos archive? I don't have to own every Simatos portrait that I'm aware of (but it would be nice).
