Not to worry big ed. We are all different. I am sure there is something out there that I would love that you would hate equally as strongly :-) It does take all types.

Be careful, there are a number of fakes out there that are signed beato. Just look on ebay right now at item 300353823546. Clearly not her signature and looks like a slip cast production piece.
