<p>[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 684172, member: 649"]I agree that there only seems to be two <i>different </i>Lamont signatures, at least as shown by the photos in this thread (I haven't looked for any others), and I, too, believe the first several sigs are the same sloppily-signing guy. However, since many carvers didn't sign their work, the existence of a third (or more?) Lamont/Lamant/whatever/<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /> is still possible. And if he/they do exist, it could help explain the confusion around the name, I suppose. </p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=5833]@Bronwen[/USER] I bow to your superior knowledge of cameo history re: the validity of the idea that "there was a serious attempt to revive the art as an industry" in the first half of the 19th century. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":D" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=8184]@Jivvy[/USER] Pyacevolu, of course! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie76" alt=":pompous:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie98" alt=":wideyed:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie19" alt=":banghead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie51" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie51" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie51" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
