Hand-Painted & Destroyed. Now new processes are beginning to be used for reproductions that fool not only the eye but the sense of touch as well, duplicating both the color and raised brush stroke of oil on canvas.

...more than a week, Lothrop Withington's freshmen friends had been calling him a fool, a liar and worse. Well, he could swallow a live goldfish if he wanted to, and that was all there was to it. $10 said he couldn...
