    Thank you, yes it has been on eBay for quite some time. It is in terrible shape btw, which must be the reason why it hasn't sold as of yet, since that would be a great year to own.

    Thank you holed & creative for showing your two cool examples. I wish I could show my example, maybe someday.

    What's stoppin' you? No pix? Or just a problem posting 'em?



    If the latter, I can perhaps help.

    "creatively damaged"

    Maybe?



    Or more likely not.



    I don't think so. I think I absorbed it somewhere, but dunno where.



    It IS an evocative turn of phrase, isn't it?
