[meteorite-list] Holbrook followup

[Rob Wesel]

As a matter of brief correction, I have an original copy of the newspaper 
was sent to Dr. Svend Buhl to turn into the prints. Svend did a wonderful 
job touching up the age spots on the ~60 year old paper and printed them 
onto nice card stock, of which a have several copies as payment for letting 
him use it. I gave Michael the OK to use the image off my site as he sees 
fit but I suspect it is a matter of public record, credit should go to Svend 
as well for the remastering work. Interesting subject as to who owns the 
artwork. IF Matteo is out there with the original that would answer that.

Hi All,
        For enquiring minds:
        Rob Wesel advertises this poster on his site and traded some
of the prints to Svend Bühl who also has it on his site.
        It is taken from a newspaper, La Domenica Del Corriere,
October 6th 1946 - and Matteo tells me he has "the original"
though I could not tell from his English if he meant he owns
the original painting or has a copy of the newspaper from
that date.
        Of course, as I knew and as Twink Monrad pointed out
to me, saguaros (the huge cactus of the Sonoran Desert in the
the Tucson area) do not grow in that the Holbrook region. I
noted that was not the only point of "artistic license" taken
by the artist. Still, a very entertaining image.
        Y'all will be able to see it on my hammers page, due to
permission from Rob Wesel.
        Best wishes, Michael
