I agree with Phil regarding the fine people who run Capitol - I've bought many posters from Tom and Strother and recently some stills throught the adjunct operation and have always had excellent dealings. On that basis one of these days I'll get a poster restored. Craig, Vancouver

No, I don't have shares in Capitol! And as another dealer I have nothing to
gain by recommending other sellers, something I do with extreme caution and
only after I feel comfortable dealing with them myself. I've been dealing
with Tom and Strother for some time now (and Fontaine via default, so to
speak) and I must say they are they among the squarest guys I've ever dealt
with. No B.S. and very friendly and upfront.

There are definitely some very god guys in the business, and Strother, Tom
and Fontaine are easily in the top 10.
