I'm with Homeless..............Unless he has an extreme personal attachment, that'd be the best route. One of the greatest carvers ever known (a href=http://www.warthers.com/>check it out) never sold any of his work. He gave away some at times and made some for that purpose, but even when the New York Central offered a fantastic sum (for the times), he refused to sell. Mooney believed that a person should never sell their hobby, and for him, a retired steelworker, it was just that.....a hobby.If any of you are in East Ohio, you MUST see this man's work.
