that even some of the most highly re-

The other day a well-known art con-
noisseur. who wanted a really old min
iature frame. visited q small shop in
Soho where he was well known. The
owner of the shop frankly admitted thAt
he had not one in the place but he pro-
duced three which he had made for a
well-known art dealer. and which al
most defed detection. They were of old
Florentine design. set with real dIa-
monds. and worn and scratched all over.
These were sold at IS gulneas apiece TO
the firm of art dealers who Immediately
put them up at auction when they each
fetched 20c guneas as antiques
