HELLO PHIL, thanks. Really like the blue borders you've outlined the pix with!
When the woman told me it was sold, I asked her if she would consider me should the deal fall through. She said that the LK had been picked up days ago, and that her hospital stay prevented her from taking the ad down. Can't imagine why it's still up. Hope she's okay.
The reduced price was already in the ad I responded to. In a voicemail, I offered the original 200 or more.
She was very quiet and unforthcoming on the phone. It took me quite a patient while to get the few details she gave.
It never hurts to have a treasure this rare rethreaded! Life is unpredictable. Her very last sentence was unsolicited and a generous surprise:
"If the buyer brings it back, I'll call you. "
You never know, Phil, so thanks.
