Heritage not looking so good--19%? Fat chance of that, unless I could get bidder to pay like in the very big auction house.

I fully intend to sell it, by the end of April, I hope.
The fact that this is the first Tramp piece to ever become available should be a big plus, I would think. Time will tell.

Will keep you posted.

Awesome stuff, Tim. Any plans on the format for auctioning, or will it be pretty much a private sale?

Kind of like a silent auction.
Buyer to pay all professional packing fees if that's the way they want it, and all shipping charges.

Can be sent to me at tkask@cinci.rr.com

Very kewl!

However, although your piece is definitely the nicest Tramp original I know of, it's a far cry from one of only two in private hands . . . . I know a couple of collectors who own several Tramp pieces (mostly MM pieces, and only 1 or 2 color ones).

It's a great item to bring to light, though!
