He is Mr. LeFarceur. Mr. Farce is from a later time, but also lace-related. I saw his presentation advertised for Williamsburg. Evidently, if you email the website, they will send you a list of their appearances. lrb -Original Message- From: Nancy Neff nnef...@yahoo.com Sent: Sep 2, 2010 12:48 PM To: Tatman tat...@tat-man.net, Lace list lace@arachne.com Subject: Re: [lace] Re: Looking for a lace-reporter in Ohio I love his name -- Mr. Farce ??
