“I love it. Jack kept me company all the way home on Monday and then was placed in his new home at Samara on Tuesday. He looks grand on our wall! One little problem - - I just sold him and must ship him to Michigan. Had not thought of pricing him for sale but did and look what happened so soon. Now that I am very attached to him and must give him up, I need your help. Could you add a Jack to our order or could you drop ship one to our customer? Thanks for your help and the wonderful products. Cheers, Lynn”
