[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 4283264, member: 5066"]Yes, I remember that cupboard well! It was in the Grey family collection (RJ Reynolds family, tobacco people and major patron of MESDA). It was 60k Hammer! with BP was over 70k Ned Hipp died last year, he was located in Bethania NC, a MAJOR loss in the restoration community. Ned was nationally recognized in this field, he started out as a Gunsmith and was known nationally for building/restoring long rifles as well. That depends, are you doing paint analysis or going with colors of cupboards already paint IDed? Yes, I'll need a painter to restore, and with Ned gone it probably won't be someone local to me. The first thing to do on this front, visit Bethania and Ned's shop, did he have an apprentice? is the shop still going? I don't know but I plan on finding out.:)[/QUOTE]
