i knew that old pic would bite me again

Hi all
I have established alpha male, the Judge Judy pics in HD on the front pics of my system is now replaced with BOND, James Bond on the set, haha
of possible interest, i added an early 18th century pic of my rear room sound tweak, an original suit of Samurai armor
just thought it might be of interest

Nice Kurt. Nothing against Judge Judy but I just don't associate her with Hi-Fi - ha!
So where did you pick up the Samurai armor???

Hey Baja
I collect Japanese swords and armor, i actually had a very busy website for many years, i decided to shut it down a few months ago, most of my clients already know me well enough they prefer there purchases to remain private, i have some really nice contacts and i have done some consulting for Sotheby's and Christies in the past, so I'm pretty dialed in, Nihonto is a very small circle of collectors, unlike audio
No Japanese swords at best buy, haha
seriously
don't get interested in it, seriously worse hobby than audio
money wise and choice wise that is, swords date back over 1000 years, Ceramics go back over 2000 years
My sword collection is actually about where i want it to be, my current buying spree is to round out my Ceramic collection,Korean celadon, Chinese ming, and some of the older Japanese pieces really fascinate me
I did get lucky and score an outrageous scroll handwritten from the last Tokugawa Shogun, ( the one depicted in Tom Cruises movie last samurai) that extolls his opinions on how to govern a country, really cool stuff if you into it
also have a few Tokugawa lacquer pieces, with the family mon ( emblem) on them
anyway, guess i better leave the Asian stuff for the Japanese forums
regards
Kurt
