    Ok where’s the picture? Maybe the old man lost his marble?

    Gian, a question not related to Marblesman:

    About 10 years ago I was having fun participating in the Ebay.Italy Antiques Forum. Think it went away years ago. Did you ever participate in it?

    That was like a social club, antiques were discussed a little but most of talk was everything else. They posted all kinds of colorful artsy stuff just to show it. Maybe I’ll try and retrieve it some day via wayback machine.

    Hi my friends,

    I am rather sad, the old man has fallen from my hands and has broken, numerous chipping and broken bits. it is the first time that one of my objects escapes from my hands, and I feel a little strange, not because of the value of the element, which is small, but because of the fact that certain errors can not be made. If it had been one of my real valuables I could not forgive myself. Ok, I can not use the camera and the usual background, I send photos taken with the phone and a blue background, better than nothing.
    Here are the photos of the cleaned element, thanks to everyone

    Just as a side note, always take a photo of marked areas, before cleaning. If you compare, the uncleaned is easier to see. (Not that we figured it out)

    Sorry to hear your little man was damaged. I know how frustrating that can be. I don't know what it says on his base but it looks better to me this way. Almost looks like T F Pantu or something like that.
