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. Phil
