While we’re talking about art, my dad, who wrote, “The Fabulous Frauds: Fascinating Tales of Great Art Forgeries” would have fallen over laughing if he’d read this guy’s sales pitch. Napolean’s Talisman? That suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and with a story like that? Yeah, right, dude.
(Dad got sued by one of the forgers and the man’s story and a few others got dropped from a later edition, so, should you be interested, only buy the earlier Weybright and Talley edition of the book, as linked to. Chapter 13 I believe. Him.)
You put those two paragraphs together and I am my father’s daughter, aren’t I. (As I hit ‘Publish.’) Hey, all publicity is good publicity, right?
