Well, since we’re all going to spend the winter here at S-B.com huddled around the stove, I wanted to put one of our prints up for auction to help JohnR keep the lights on, maybe put a little extra wood on the fire and thank him for giving us all a great place to hang out this past year.
Just in time for the Holidays is a digitally restored 1881 photograph of the Graves Point Fishing Club in Newport, RI ~ the bass were caught on a single tide between 6 and 11 AM on August 29, 1881 with a total weight of 495 lbs. The print is sepia-toned and double-matted to 11x14 finished size and framed in Honey Walnut Burl and would be a great addition to your den or man cave. We scanned the frame for the auction, but if you’d like to look at a larger version you can view it at
www.theanglersart.com.
The auction will run until 12:00 noon on Wednesday, December 22 and all proceeds will benefit the site. The winner can pay John directly through PayPal or get in touch with him to make arrangements if you don’t currently have a PayPal account. Upon confirmation of payment from John, the winner can pick up the print here in Newport or we’ll arrange to ship it to you.
Thanks for bidding ~ and Best Wishes for a Merry Christmas, a Happy and Healthy New Year ~ and with luck, a day like this one in 1881!
From me and Mrs. Crafty ~ Happy Holidays!
