Story
At Claude's meet back in September, a dealer showed up and pulled a box out with a number of items. As usual, a plethora of folks descended, myself included. 3 baby signals came out -- the one I got back in September, a Brookfield with some interesting swirls, and this one. He got it for the color, thinking it unusual for a California -- I looked at it after he got it, and we discussed it a bit. He said he was putting together a display, and if it didn't fit in, he'd be willing to send it along to me. Well, around about January he wrote and said he'd got his light boxes put together, and wanted to know if I was still interested. I was -- and he sent it along! When I got it, I immediately compared by my sage green one, and initially thought they were the same. Lighting conditions must have been bad, because on a white sheet, it's obviously different!
