Pronounce 'Ysart'? How many mice & cheese paperweights?

<< < (2/2)

Frank:
Never shocked by prices at Selman auctions.

A belated thanks to Anne and Thanks to Ian for the prod  :oops:

I now added pronunciation to the front page

--- Quote from: "KevH" ---But the $600 quoted for an example on eBay seems a snip - I don't recall seeing that one - and I wonder what its condition was?
--- End quote ---

My recollection is that it was in good condition with no particular problems;  the price seemed low given my brief experience in watching other PY weights.  I regret not taking a poke at it.  Those fish weights are pretty fantastic too.  I should probably just not look anymore, they're too nice.

Frank:
The 3D fish are quite stunning but my particular favourite is the snake with a solid red center surrounded by a white spiral. Parkington was getting some Monart from a US auction and asked me if I wanted something from the sale - I ordered the snake weight (plate 166).
Better image will replace this one soon.

This got him looking at the weights in the sale. a few days later I got a call from Michael profusely apologetic. It had arrived and he had fallen in love with it.

The other great has to be the ugly ducklings on a pond, a parody of the antique French swans on a lake weights.
