Nailsey or Asiatic Elephant??
« on: February 09, 2011, 10:22:25 AM »
HI ,
          Not that this is something I normally look at ,but this does not look like any early 19thc Nailsey I have seen before .

Cheers ,
               Peter.

21st century  :or: via TKMaxx (distributor).
And I can tell that without labels.

(I did wonder at your spelling, Peter!)

oh well , that will teach me to poke my nose in  ::), I contacted the seller and said he might like to obtain another opinion on his elephant as it looked to be of a much later date and possibly even new ,and not in any Nailsea style that i had come across before , his reply is really not repeatable,oh well ,  :wsh: back to the 18thc  for me  :thud:

Cheers ,
                Peter ,




ps   spelling ok ?  :X:

Of course, Peter.  :tof: I had assumed it was a deliberate error in the title.
But now I want to know what the chap said that was unrepeatable - maybe I'll tell him it's a TKMaxx special, that perhaps £2.99 would be a price to aim for, but that he should remember his customers might expect postage costs to be included. ;D

You mean cretin, and if he is, he should be taking his thyroxine.
