Re: [mascagni-interest] Correct likeness on Mascagni Stamp?

[Erik Bruchez]

Believe it or not, there is s portrait even worse on one of the coins 
shown in the 1963 Livorno book! Mascagni looks like coming straight from 
hell on that one ;-)

Note that the hair style is typical from his last years (I can't put my 
finger on the exact dates, but that's probaly in the 20's or later).
