Why wouldn't I be surprised to learn that Jim Marshall has one of those
stashed somewhere in a bag he hasn't opened since the  Summer of Love?:-)

And, yes, who ever made the comment about excessiveness and black paint and
jewelry...Arthur? ABSOLUTELY.

On a more mundane note....just FedExed an M6 off to Leica USA in the wanning
days of its passport - actually three days past the wane - for some minor
work....I'll report back on how quickly it reappears, given that I told them
I have a couple of shoots coming up very shortly...
