Rare Victorian Giveaway - Moorish Fretwork Issue Magazine Antiques

One of my favorite issues of the Magazine Antiques (and I have hundreds dating back as far as the 1930s) is the May 2005 issue with an article by Paul Tucker on Moorish Fretwork. As some of you may know, Paul is a regular around here on Rare Victorian and I thank him for his regular assistance on identifying all things Hunzinger, Merklen and Ransom. Heck - anything spiral. This issue is important for it's coverage of the kings of spiral - George Hunzinger, Merklen Brothers, and Moses Younglove Ransom and is a must for a fan of any of these makers. I find myself in the position of having two copies of this issue due to some recent bulk Magazine Antiques purchases, so I am giving this issue up to one of the Rare Victorian readers. Read about how you can qualify yourself to win this copy of Magazine Antiques for your reference material in the forum. If you're not yet a member, sign-up instructions are here.
