Was this real? Enamelled Garde star.

It looks like it to me and surely it was a bargain at that price?

Looks original to me and yes, a bargain at that price. Perhaps not much demand for just "the star"?? My Garde officer wappen cost me $500US as a comparison.
 
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours as well Mike! I have a year to go on the spousal support so perhaps I can then, save up and buy one of your excellent paintings!! :thumb up:
 
That would be great Brian, I'm flattered. Of course, I will let you have something special at a very friendly price if you wish to buy one. I'm working hard for a show in London next spring with a new gallery right now. I'm glad to have found some time to get back into this hobby of ours - what with the band as well it's been all go recently but that has slowed a bit now - no more gigs until next summer now. hope things are going well for you over there - not too much snow, I hope?

Cheers, Ron - I should have bid but you never know what the ceiling is?

I always just bid my max and let it ride. Don't win often, but I don't really care.

:D Ron
