Re: peso - a big little teapot
Nice Ann. Though I must confess that for me having the wooden handle being cut off is a bit distracting. Not sure what it would look like with the tea pot turned the other way with handle laying to the right. I know it is for illustrative purposes so I am sure it is fine for folks to know what they are about to bid on.

Alan C -Original Message- From: Paul Stenquist Sent: Sunday, June 11, 2017 3:54 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: PESO 2017 - W196 - GDG I first met Moss at a Saab press dinner at Hilton Head. Eric Carlsson, Saab's rally star, was there, and would take the journalists for hair raising rides the next day at a Georgia racetrack. (He put one car on its roof with a scribe seated beside him and teased me because I politely declined an invitation to try for rollover number two.) Anyway to get to the point, Eric's sister was the wife of Stirling Moss, so Eric had invited them to the Hilton Head bash. As journalists pressed Moss for tales of his days behind the wheel he would steer the conversation back to Carlsson and Saab. And of course there are plenty of Eric "on the roof" Carlsson stories out there. Good guy, Moss. Carlsson too.
