Thanks - I went back to Dale's post, and more specifically John Pergolizzi's response and saw his reference to the photos (attached). I realized that it was my use of the "old" Google Groups settings that was not showing the photos. I'll attach them here. Here is a man, world renown, at the top of his craft, showing such pride in his work, it says it all.

I only hope that whomever buys the Masi will want to put it into it's rightful place in Bob Hovey's Masi Registry, with the other Confente special-builds.
