Captain Jim Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 I just had to post this somewhere. Never mind the portrait of Richards as a pirate, just look at the frame. I did notice, however, that the lock on the left gun (as one faces the frame) in on backwards. Otherwise, excellent. Does anyone know where who made the frame? EDIT: OK, found the artist, Paul Karslake, Ron Wood's Brother-in-law. And yet another cool frame! Who makes these things? My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
Shipwreck John Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Nice frame Jim!! Of course I think would look a little better with this picture in it! Shipwreck Adventurer of Independent Means TALL SAILS AND MERMAIDS TAILS, THIS BE THE LIFE FOR ME "THEM THAT DIE WILL BE THE LUCKY ONES"
Misson Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Wow, that's cool. I wonder where you get one?

Captain Jim Posted September 5, 2007 Author Posted September 5, 2007 Wow, that's cool. I wonder where you get one? That is my question exactly..WHERE!? A frame like one of those might make me spring for a full Don Maitz portrait. And I have a room that would not be overwhelmed by such. In short, I WANT ONE! Nice one, John, I had to laugh at that...

Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Those are cool Jim... you'd look good "framed! On the lock; I saw an original double rilfle at an event at Fort DeChartres many years ago. The left-side lock was actually made just like that. The reason had to do with the triggering mechanics, so there is at least ONE lock built like that in existance. The rifle was a german piece made in Pennsylvania ca. 1780 Wish I could remeber that fella's name. Bo
