Lot 49. Skinner has cultivated a small and devout group of Turkish collectors who lately have eagerly absorbed any good yastik brought under the hammer. Lot 49 was no exception. In nice condition with minimal problems, the cochineal color put some buyers off, despite this color's long and documented history in Turkey. Probably on the strength of its bold graphics, it brought a well deserved $1,210, safely within its estimate. Skinner, Jan 22, 1993.
