Red Top has a replica mount of one of the 73s on the wall, tho I'm not sure whether it's Tony's or Charlie Cinto's.

Mike, one at Red Tops is Charlies.. I remember several years back at msba show, when it was over at the Cordage Plant if I remember it right, Tony's mount and Charlie's mount, side by side, unreal... I think they were both done by Wally Brown, real nice looking, for sure.
What was even cooler was Tony introduced me to Charlie that day, he is one real gentlemen, very nice guy.

The mount that is hanging from the hook in Red Top is also Wally's too. He told me it was one of his first attempt's and he didn't like it. He said that if you caught a world record he would mount it for nutin. He always looked to see what the fish was eating after he made the castings before he threw it in the Fal. dump. He knew the first big fish of the year he would get to mount always seem to come from around Cuttyhunk and it would always have scup in its belly. Told me the big bass came up with the scup. He used to have the state record large mouth hanging in his kitchen. I think he said he made 4 cast of the fish before it fell apart. He was a very interesting gentleman. P.

My brother has a 10 pound LMB he caught in Foxboro (30 years ago) done by him... Nice job, beautiful artistry.

The one hanging from the hook looks like a skin mount.

I am pretty sure it is. I think he went over to the fiberglass soon after that one. He told me, this was 15 years ago so bear with me, he worked on the original Boston Whaler's so I guess he got his fiberglass skills from working there. He did a hell of a job with the air brush too. 15 years ago I took a fish to his house to be done and he kept me there for 2 hours talking my ear off about stripers and fishing. I finally had to tell him I had to get up the next morning to go to work. What a nice guy. I wish I had a tape recorder with me that nite. Memory isn't as sharp as it once was.
