[QUOTE="Walter Del Pellegrino, post: 225688, member: 90"]Don The plate arrived intact and in fine condition. My fingers trembled as I opened the package. One would think that after decades of opening such boxes that one would grow complacent about it all but the excitement and anticipation reverberated throughout my entire body as if I was standing next to one of those huge orchestral Timpani drums during the playing of the 1812 Overture. It has been years since I nave added a new piece to my collection and I find it as exhilarating as the first time I added to the showcase. It is, however, your gesture of giving that has touched me even more deeply than the gift itself. How does one thank someone for renewing a faith in his fellow human beings? When my fingers stop trembling I will spend the remainder of the day with my research books, magnifying glass and the newest addition to my collection. For me, it is a true treasure. Again, thank you.[/QUOTE]
