This is my first "gripe-post" out of many I have made here- I usually do not like to be negative, but my goodness.
Some time ago I saw an autographed picture of the "Sapranos" for sale ,at the same time one of the original prints taken on the Hornet of the Doolittle raid,, the Saprano print sold for about twice the Doolittle print,, go figure
