Bear Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 This is the Murat I lost at auction. It's the second best vignette I've seen from this period. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 In my opinion this one has the number one spot for vignettes.It unfortunately resides in another collection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paddywhack Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 (edited) so how many marshals do you have now????very nice and historic documents!!! :beer: Edited November 5, 2008 by paddywhack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 Hello Paddywack,I have 15 of 26. I could get maybe 4 or 5 more but the documents would date between 1820-1840. It's just not the same as one from the 1st Empire. I'm always finding marshals that I already have. Just got in this miniature portrait of a french officer from around 1815-1840.thanks,barry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
