update Allan Scott article
« on: June 28, 2008, 12:35:44 PM »
Since leaving Caithness Allan Scott is trying to continue his work in Scotland, he needs collector support to do this. A link to some of Allan's unique one-offs can be found at the top of the article here.

We need to keep our makers making  :clap:

Thankyou for that post Frank, it is most appreciated  :). I am trying to get some time to clean up the really rubbish pictures I took of all of the weights I made for the Wheaton event and then I will send them to you for your archive. I really was pushed for time though so they are not the best pics by any means ::)

Frank, there's a lot of Allan's weights which you don't have listed on your site. I think I sent you photos ages ago and wonder if you still have them.
Women and cats will do as they please,
and men and dogs should get used to the  idea.

I have a backlog of thousands of images, currently adding 500 or so per week across all sites... as to CG I am getting the catalogue images in before the actual photos as this ensures the data is correct (reasonably correct - there are differences between catalogues) - everything for 2000-2007 is in hand and will be completed next - apart from some commissions, one-offs, show room specials and event weights that did not get catalogued.

I think I also have quite a few of Allan's waiting their turn too. Loads of Perthshire and of course a lot of glassware too.

Just takes time and money. Former plenty, latter all gone  :huh:
