BTW Where on God's green Earth did you pick up the Loewy VT ? What a find!
tbh, i just kept asking around if anyone had a loewy for sale. lucked into a seller who responded affirmatively. when i asked what kind, the seller replied "Loewy Vintage Tortoise"
that's it. BOOM. lol
btw, I just uncovered a brand new Devaux Noir for ~$800 USD. Granted, it's not the Marquina for $665. DM me if interested. After all that recent brouhaha, you and @TR14 have right of first refusal before I consider sharing the info with anyone else. I may end up picking it up myself lol
