Sorry if this sounds negative, but better I speak honestly, rather than fill you with false hope.
No problem , i agree with you totaly , and i didn't had any collectors demands for the specific frame from time a . It's just that i wanted to have it in my collection , and feel also the ride of it when it's finished . I like very much the frames that are in original shape , but i am having also a sympathy for injured ''horses'' like this one . They carry a story on their back , even if it's a bad one !
