KirbyJack Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Cool copy, Harley! Its surprising to me how pretty I find these 3s and 4s. It's all relative, I suppose. My copy's a fair. I'd probably keel over if I saw a 9.2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does that mean you think my two RHK's suck @Lucky Baru? Nope, far from it. A golf clap to me is what everyone I golf with does when a buddy sinks a very difficult putt. We all stop and softly clap at what they just accomplished. It doesn't happen that often. Maybe once or twice in 18 holes. Funny that the place you looked it up in has an entirely different meaning. Must be a generational thing. Get Marwood & I 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had very low expectations! Excellent! I love a well loved copy. My two are beautifully tatty. It's the only way to be. Your copy is the 'bold' font type I see - you only need 3 more for the full set @KirbyJack : Also, have you noticed how feint the Kids face is on your copy - and also the face / hair on the lady to the left? Looks like a printing anomaly which makes you book all the more cool in my book (printing errors are cool). And all this for $20! I see @Dave2739's $30 and raise you $40. Or whatever the phrase is.
