Tres cool eh ???

very much so! that kind of personalization makes it much more interesting and its a unique captured moment in time! Artists oversell their limited edition prints by adding little hand drawings or paintings by their signatures. they call it a "Remark" and they charge extra for it and supposedly make the print more unique and valuable because you have an artists original on the print.... well, what you have is essentially the same but even more historically valuable!!!! it certainly would increase the value of the item in my opinion

Carl, that's from Red McColpin! Hold onto that, that's quite something to have and on Eagle Association stationary no less. There'd be quite a few who would pay good money for that.
