For those of you who know of me for some time, most are aware of the fact i write, and actually enjoy writing. The images offered here are screen shots of a pdf, one of many i have sent out in the month of January, one of 10 sent out this month to a subscriber list including auction house directors, the editorial staff of hali, active dealers, and both experienced as well as novice collectors -- all for $60 per year, ie. $5 per month. The pdfs include both auction previews and reviews, a commentary on rugs offered online, including dealers and collectors here on rugrabbit.com as well as some of the facebook rug groups and more often focusing on rugs that have passed through my hands over the past thirty years. The final image here includes some comments unilaterally offered by subscribers when i placed this same post on Facebook. If interested, and I'm guessing you might be as you're perusing material offered on this site, be in touch.... contact thomascoleart@gmail.com to find out how to sign up.
