Nicely done Mark. A class act by both the collector and maker. Brings a smile to my face.

Thanks again for the kind words, and I really wasn't expecting there to be much interest for a smaller, say 16 x 20 inch print in a limited unsigned run but based on the number of posts and PMs I've recd there might be enough to do a run of 25 or so. Anyone that hasn't already PMd me about an unsigned print please do so I get an idea of how many would be needed. The printing wouldn't likely be until after the holidays as the printer has indicated that this is a very busy...

Mark,

I would just like to congratulate you on a terrific job. Looking at the photo of Mr. Bogdan you can see by the look on his face that he must have been delighted and honored by your hard work. It is always great when a plan all comes together!

Thanks for all of the kind words, and to answer a couple of the questions...

Very classy, Mark. And much better than your original poster idea of the Outhouses of Minnesota.

Mark,

Very nice. Pretty neat to see the progression of the Bogden reel design on all one sheet. Are you planning on selling them?
