A Escher Barber Gem to go with my Barber Delight. 5 x 2 1/2 of Thuri goodness. I will be taking this for a test drive as soon as some free time come along.

Today, there is one less Escher in the wild. Stopped at a Wednesday flea market that I have not been to in a while. Found this beauty, a 7 x 1 1/2 of blue-green goodness. Could not give the dealer my money quick enough

Damn I wish I could find at least 1 stone in the wild. All my flea markets have are old record players and cheap cups, etc.
On an eternal den clearing mission at this point.

The funny thing is a lot of my flea market finds are from Snowbird Canadians. They shop all summer and bring all there stuff to sell in Florida. It is even funnier when I over hear other Canadians saying while shopping in Florida they can't find good thing like this at home

Found this 9 x 2 inch Escher in the wild and gave it a overhaul. Re glued the parts of the label that were loose-flaking. Cleaned the paper the best without damaging. Gave it a few coats of lacquer-sealer to lock in place. So as not to be a oaf, lapped the side edge with no saw marks to see the dual layer inside. Working surface is a nice color with a soft/muddy personality. This is my largest Thuri and look forward to playing with it
