i think he's the last living link to "the way it was".
i've been to grosetto 3 times. from various conversations i have
had with him, i was told in so many words that he, as well
as all the others over there, make these things (...points to
a bunch of nonferrous-ed material frames "of the day") because
"there alot of workers here, and each has a wife and a baby
or three...", but would rather make the handmade steel frames.
if the market didn't turn on its head in the 90s, there would likely
be more kay-oh-effs in italy.

e-Richie and others have mentioned the Tommasini marque several times
over the course of the list and I was wondering what the general
consensus, if any, there is about this builder. Every Tommasini I have
seen has been nothing less than gorgeous, but was wondering what other's
experiences have been.
