About the price - this thing thrifty

Bykinist, glad that your sense of humor has not suffered as a result of our personal correspondence)))



happy to listen to the recommendations of more experienced people for a price.
because there is no money for the taking (hopefully :)>)

It turns out that the top label, autographed Aref'eva and year of creation , is also the work of Gromov ?
For this, he apparently took a pencil hardness of the other . So?
Yes, sir ... Original.

Boris , first, the inscriptions were made ​​by Gromov in different times ... and somehow strange to suspect him of the fact that he chose a different pencils) )))

Valentine Gromov in this case it acts as a master-printer .... That does not diminish the artistic value of these things ...
but perhaps some will adjust my price ... but not today and not so much :shy:>

Replied to the PM

Be that as it may , it is interesting to see such attempts to work with this technique.
Little imitation Ushin slightly Konstantinov ... How to work, they are weak, but for a collection of interesting ... if Aref . Especially with the signature of Gromov. The fact that he published , not scary , because it is important , who cut ... and inking ink is a technical matter.
As for the signature , then it would be on the back of Gromov write what had happened and to sign as a witness and a printer .

Beauty will save the world , but not rude. You're part of the world , so it's for you .

I agree with the two comments. Thank you for them .

But, unfortunately , I can not thank you for suspicion :
Again, there is proof. If you doubt boards themselves , that is, close to artists ' Arefevskogo circle "people who will attest to their authenticity.
