Signature for id please... Jim Munnelly??? or ?
« on: July 11, 2007, 03:39:29 PM »
I have bought a group of contemporary weights, with two St Clairs, this one and another  (which I have asked a question about separately)  -  It's a lovely piece, with a central silvery dome, and burgundy spatter outside that.  But I am not very good with signatures  :-[.  It looks like Munnelly, but I have tried that and lots of other possible permutations and I'm getting nowhere....

Does anyone recognise the weight or the signature?

Thanks!

Trouble is Max, that is where I bought it.... 8) 8)

Thank you very much!

About halfway down this page is a reference to a Jim Munnelly who was an ex-Whitefriars employee who then moved to Kingslyn and ended up at Mdina. The message board looks like it's some transition board because all the posts are by the site admin.

There's another ref to him in this page, by Sonya 22.

Think it's a possibility!

Well I've put a new thread on the WF forum, so hopefully someone will have more info.  The picture of the youngsters from WF is SO of its time, isn't it!!

Thank you very much!
