Coolio's,

There is a Ron Kitchen frame on Oz ebay. Nice details, one of the better built frames from the early 80's. Worth a look ...

http://ebay.com/<blah>

Alas, too big for me (59 x 56cm). I know the seller (great guy) but he's not into shipping O/seas. If you're keen (and patient) I can help with regards to shipping on a return favour kind of arrangement. Nothing in it for me other than wishing it go to a good home.

BTW, Kitchen wasn't very prolific and there are very few of his frames around. Decals are non existent, even finding another example to source artwork style is a tricky one. Would be worth owning just to say "Honey, I'll be spending some time on the Kitchen" :) ... actually that might put you in the doghouse !!!

ciao,
