was released in 1941 and directed by John Huston. The FAlcon that this is referring to is an alleged English Falcon directed by Ernie Clemente. The mystery is when it was made and how I should approach bringing out the character (note that I made no reference to authenticity, though a slippery slope, a consideration) though finish and components. A couple of our esteemed list members (Michael Karhle, Nigel Land and Dale Brown) were kind enough to weigh in with some interesting well founded opinions, and the relevant parts of their posts (with their permission) are included on the webpage I offer:

I have also included the original sales listing and comments from the previous owner. I can add supplemental photographs if desired.

I am looking for your guidance and understanding of my rather limited knowledge. thanks all, gabriel -- gabriel l romeu N40° 9.xxx W74° 38.xxx ± http://studiofurniture.com Ø http://journalphoto.org ±
