By that time, quick-witted secretary managed to slap over 10 thousand prints from engravings of his boss and literally deluged with their global market. It is known that El Salvador has always signed his work, but 10 thousand counterfeit plates bore the original signature of the artist! As a result found out, unpredictable artist had before his death, to sign more than 300 thousand blank sheets of paper. With this heritage and took the "resourceful" Peter Moore.
