<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 311889, member: 5833"]I have it on my own Watch List but will not wade into the fray with this many bidders already snapping at it. If it stays at a price you like, I say go for it. It is very nice: well carved; good condition; fairly large; quality convertible mount. It is also absolutely filthy, but not in any way that should leave it marred for life. It should look even nicer after a bubble bath. (I use a dab of dish washing liquid in tepid water, a long soak & a very soft toothbrush.) Cut in helmet shell, the subject is topical to the season: based on depictions of Archangel Saint Gabriel, the 'Annunciation Angel', who appeared to Mary with some unexpected news. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie100" alt=":writer:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie92" alt=":turtle:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
