A question mark does not make it an accurate listing. It has been reported to eBay's computers, so we'll see if they take action to protect a gullible bidding public.

An honest mistake...I'm mixing up Frank Lloyd Wright and Norman Rockwell all the time....Liberty Magazine covers, Saturday Evening Post covers, who can keep them straight?

Who knew ............ Wright was pitching Corn Flakes on loafers!

And the likeness of the 'Young Frank' they used was spot on, too!

You know, at $21,000,000 one would think the cachet of Wright's name wouldn't be needed. [/list]

It used to be "location, location, location" -- now it's "location, location, Fred Lloyd Wright" !

The oval, which has been filled in with a mirror, was originally open. FLW put his face through the opening, and attended the 1895 Oak Park Halloween Street Party as a Victorian coat rack. DNA proves it.
