There is nothing sad about the pics of your Landshark, Pam. Yours was the first 'Shark I ever saw, in a post soon after I joined BF, it always intrigued me and John's story is great. I imagine he would laugh at the WalMart statement, he puts everything into his frames and the paint colourways/designs. I got to see one at a century last October, here, the lady was gracious and rightly proud of her bike, many of us were drooling while looking at it longingly and lovingly. Very nice bike.
