<p>[QUOTE="GaleriaGila, post: 109290, member: 993"]That print is my favorite possession. I was wheeling and dealing natural history prints on eBay at the time, and I did some profit-taking and combined it with an income tax refund, and bought that bird from the Oppenheimer folks. Amazingly, I found some references on the actual original painting, with pictures of notes in Lear's hand, so this really is a special thing. If the house is on fire, I'll grab my parrot and then this print on my way out!</p><p>My ol' man suggested naming the cane Frank (cuz of the ol' blue eyes) but I'm still mad that he won't use it, so I ignored that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
