Selling for over £100 I have a spare copy perfect inside but claw marks on the cover from my Staffie trying to 'pick up' the fish vase on the cover to play with it :)

 ;) I was just pointing out the one colour that exists in Mdina terms where there are truly two very highly distict colours which are both of a purple nature, used!
Nothing like the accurate colour distinctions in wfs, Chris,  :) but there is a big difference in bits of Mdina whether one or the other colour is used.

I have just trawled the new, new, new Mdina site - they have no images or names of older ranges there now.
(nuiscance!)
I'm sure this was called something like "Black and Silver" or "Ebony and Silver"
(even though it's purple and yellowy-bluey silvery)

It has always been like that - from the very earliest days.
Even the Boffos are simply referred to as "two Italian maestros".

No credit at all to the originator, teacher, artist and designer they owe absolutely everything to.  ???
