Re: Is it bulino or banknote style
What a wonderful rendition of such a notorious outlaw. He lived around Dallas and hid out for a long time in the bad areas around Dallas. I purchased a small book, a first edition, which is why I bought it, on Sam Bass. A true comedy of errors, and your engraving captured the bravura of Sam and his band. It would be fun to have a smoke of your engraving in the book, but I haven't been able to find it. It lives on in my memory, and you captured those beautifully. I hope to be able to engrave with such precision in the future. I try to push my limits regularly.
I just found out that I made the ultimate error...I engraved a western style buckle, with a bucking bronco and cowboy, on a belt buckle for my 5 year old grandson, and sent it off without a photo. I intended to post it, but it was a Christmas present, and had to be mailed across the country. Hopefully I can get my Daughter to take a photo of it and send that back. I will post then.
