Good morning folks,
Thought I would share my excitement with the board, since this means a lot to me. Graig and I agreed on my purchasing this several months ago, and he worked with me in EVERY way possible, and we agreed on EVERYTHING!!! Well, when this finally arrived a few weeks ago, my excitement couldn't be contained, so I thought I would show everyone the steps of the final piece arriving at my house:
Picture 1 - Still in the FedEx package
Picture 2 - Peanuts abound

Picture 3 - It's in the smaller box inside]
Picture 4 - Packed well inside the box
Picture 5 - Getting closer, the back of the final picture
Picture 6 - The front revealed
Picture 7 - Matty in all his 1901 glory!!!

Picture 8 - Framed and ready to hang on my wall!!
Hope everyone enjoys, it is truly a major piece in my collection!! I assure you, the pictures I took DO NOT do this painting justice, when I took it to my framer, he told me he had NEVER seen anything like it, it was so amazingly lifelike.
Thanks again, Mr. Kreindler, I am in AWE!!!
Thanks,
Greg
