Un dernier gag pour ce soir, qui trouvera écho chez certains de mes petits camarades, familiers avec le commerce de l'Art.
Pour le coup, Jack Palmer se trompe: on trouve encore dans les poubelles ou derrière les meubles, des originaux de très grands auteurs, qui font les délices financiers d'une certaine maison de ventes, coutumière de ce genre d'anecdotes.
