Seems item listing has been removed or, at least, is no longer available,

Hang on a minute, you are missing the point - this one has got "superb iconography". I don't think mine has got that (where is the dictionary)?

What do you do? Put a candle in front of it and ask it to intercede on your behalf?! :D
Could be quite effective at keeping rust at bay if that's the case :wink:

Iconography - Illustration of subject by drawings etc; study of portraits esp. of one person?????????? Still not worth £80

Think this is David "Jaffa" Dickinson speak.

FIRST law of actioneering is to treat the lower classes with contempt.

SECOND law being to dress like a pxxtt.

THIRD law is to wave wads of banknotes in the faces of the poor.
