The way things have been done for centuries in the arts and the crafts
which aspire to art-range pricing. It's the master's finishing touch
that counts. The donkeys do the rough work.

You wouldn't expect the master to hit the woods and do the logging,
would you? Just a case of where you draw the line....




If the 'finishing touch' is putting on the finish or signing the piece,
the
line has been set back so far the signature might as well read "Made in
China".


Except to the chump who's willing to pay for that signature. That's what
the "art" buyer's after. Sure could get a Dorito bowl somewhere else a lot
cheaper.
