<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kristiaan, post: 164332, member: 654&quot;]Hello there,</p><p>it as been a while since I posted.</p><p>We moved to a new location and bringing all the stuff from different ware houses into one kept me buissy...and still is.</p><p>Anyway, here is my latest entry; a scrimshaw whale bone plate measuring 16.2 / 12.8 cm and signed by William L. Roderick.</p><p>I didn&#039;t noticed the signature untill I was handling it at home and probably nobody else saw it (or knew it!) at the auctionhouse where I got it. Because I got it at the price of a normal avarage scrimshaw plate.</p><p>Doing some research I stumbled on srcimshaw made by William L. Roderick at very high prices. So my question is; is it real!?</p><p>I don&#039;t know much about bones or ivory, but I do know about plastics, and thise one sounds and feels like bone (no plastic( didn&#039;t do the hotneedle test yet!)).</p><p>Detail pic&#039;s were made with a magnifyer.</p><p>Intresting (to me !) detail is the flag at the top of the mast that got carved but not colorized ...for some reason....</p><p>Intrested to hear your opinions.</p><p>cheers</p><p>|&lt;ris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
