Greece

And now, for something completely different.


The Goddess of a thousand names, Iris. A messenger like Hermes was, only instead of riding a chariot, she rode rainbows.

Roman States

OK, I'm seriously interested in this one. Potentially(I pray to the Gods) my biggest "Find".

If you follow up on this entry, I may well be saying they were bogus. Anyone with a specialty in this Italian set please post a comment to me or email me.

SC# 12, 14, 15, 17a, 18 and 20. CV for 03 was 75.00, 110.00, 675.00, 150.00, 125.00, and 30.00 respectively.

I just came across these 10 minutes ago. Needless to say I will need to get some measurements to show the perfs had not been trimmed off.

Otherwise, if they have been trimmed, it's still a nice set.
