So you may have guessed that I might be looking to get my hands a 1917-D T1 SLQ. This is the one. It is a little of a fixer upper. Has some gunk on it that may be pvc. Don't know if it will clean up, but through the gunk, I think I see a good set of bones underneath. We'll see after some acetone. Ended up paying $38.50 for this beauty in the rough thinking it would grade fine again. Hope springs eternal. Your thoughts on grade and problems welcome and appreciated. Thanks!

THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
