				 Czerny lot 186 
 
			
			Hi Will
 Actually I think lot 186 at Czerny’s recent sale is correct.  Looking at the way they photograph things I think the strange colour is just the way they have cleaned up there photo’s on the black background.  If I lighten it up it looks pretty similar to mine, which also has evidence of a dark stain to the leather that is largely worn off.  The sword was passed in so it is probably still available at the low reserve.  If I didn’t have a good example already I would probably have go at this one.
 
 Cheers Cathey and Rex
