Hi all,
I haven't weighed in on this debate, because Old Judge's are not my forte,but I would be hard pressed to disagree with David anaylasis. We don't need someone who is "acceptable" to both parties, we need someone who knows what there talking about. If David has viewed these"proofs" and determined that they are not of period, and Mastro and other auction houses feel the same, than What is the debate? I have nothing against Nick, No Axe to grind against American, but feel that David has proven his expertise over time and his consistency. Personally I wish the items were legit, because I think they would look great framed on the wall, but I doubt I could outbid Jay Miller to own any. Be well to all Brian
PS This has been the most civil debate I have seen on this board in some time, which proves we are all friends seeking the truth instead of enemies seeking to destroy.
