hankronNick, just remember that I'm the type of guy who says, "I told you so." Story has it that these may be the same proofs I examined for MastroNet (hint: patina and varnish aren't the same thing). People don't always follow my formal advice on the authenticity of photos, but down the road these people invariably realize my knowledge and insight on the subject (not to suggest I'm not ignorant about a million other subjects, including how to set the date on my new watch, use cling wrap and cut the dog's toenails). No matter how you or SCD or the auction house argue your position now, I promise you that a year or two down the road that you will shake your head that you didn't take my opinion and advice more seriously.
