This thread died a little too quickly. I want to keep it going here. I will upload some pics tomorrow, but in the meantime, I was wondering what year your Conde Negra is Ricardo?

An impressive collection incidentally!

Here is my humble collection. There is a peg head blanca by Andres Dominguez Guerrero, and the other is a Casimiro Gonzalez that used to belong to Oscar Guzman. I am hoping to add a Conde Negra sometime in the future!

It's from '85. Probably a Sanchis like Cepero's.

I thought your Brune had perfected self-levitation but then I realized the crop and the part of the hand that still showed.

Great photo!
