    Thank you! I had a chance of going with her and a couple of her cousins on that trip, but was busy with baby, etc... Inside the band is a stamped oval with "Israel 925" topped with crenellation/parapet/parapet with crenellation or whatever the top rim of a castle turret is called. On the outside of the band is a teeny tiny oblong punch/cartouche that may??? contain a couple of Hebrew letters.

    Thanks again!

    I have an autographed photo of Bobby , given to me by Tommy Ivan & Billy Ray.
    He signed it with a ballpoint !!!:sour: , that has faded over time....( but it left an imprint on the 8 x 10 glossy ! )
    I also got Stan Mikita's & Pierre Pilots.....but I haven't seen them in over 35 years & they may be lost to iniquity ....

    Billy Ray also gave me two Blackhawk logo golf balls....& a quarter !!
    I re-gifted one of the balls to my father 2 years ago......& the quarter......well I never understood that anyway & likely bought some candy with it the next day.

    It's a portrait of me this morning? MS plus cold plus sleep deprivation plus overpriced estate sale = you get the idea. OTOH I think I got the better of them. Found a dirty glass turtle and put it in my pile...it's Swarovski, signed.

    I was garage saleing about 15/20 years ago when i came upon one that was of disarray and wrong prices on the stuff she had . i volunteered some time to help her out and organize , price her stuff , she had some nice stuff that her husband had collected over years (he died and left it to her kids didn't want it ). after we were done she told me to pick out anything/s i would like i picked a broken down vintage truck with a bent boom and wheels she replied " it looks like your pickup truck needs a pickup truck" . the crank is also broken but i won't touch it or try to fix it but the rest i fixed other side in mint, some fire (old )extinguisher also .

    Best I can do at the moment. I took Mucinex with the cough suppressant in it, and it's suppressing my equilibrium. :dead: And the sun's going down. The eyes are green and he's really sparkly now that I've cleaned him up a bit.

    I don't need another witch in the house; there's a one per dwelling limit! Then again I don't need a glass turtle either, "witch" has never stopped me before.
