David...I make the usual offer...any piece of mine you guys want for a raffle or whatever you are welcome to. I gave a small bust taken from the maquette of Ashurbanipal to Jackie sometime back for an AAS raffle. They made a poster of it and cirtculated it around the country, which seemed odd to me. She swore she was offered $2000 by a few people but held out for the $10,000 she claimed she could get. I have no way of verifying any of this except to say that the last time I saw the sculpture it was sitting on her desk at her office.
But the offer is out there...all you guys hve to do is cover the casting cost and shipping. Maybe someone there wants his family name on the Hammurabi Monument.
