I don't think Pablo Picasso did sculptures but if he did.
Really, the first image of this last engine. Looks like
a Picasso painting. Call it, "Keeping an eye out for you".

Nick:

A wonderful patterned base.  I just love them.

I am always on the lookout for another one.

5 daily posts away from 1/3rd of 2024!

Keep up the great work. 🤠

That's a neat engine!  It would be interesting to know who made it.  I don't think it was Ryder, and there's nothing Buckman about it.

Day 119: I owe a huge Thank You to Charlie for this one. I was bowling with my kids and on the way out to the car I looked at my phone and had an oh sh** moment realizing that the auction had ended. Charlie had won the engine on eBay and seen my post on the forum about it and I ended up with the engine soon after 😊

Yep .... definitely sounds like a Charlie sort of thing!

If I remember right, this is the Empire Charlie wanted from an antique shop near me, and went to him as a trade for the roller. I am very Thankful for this deal 😊
