Hroth Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) Hattons had a K's Bulldog a few days ago, to a rather better standard at, if I recall correctly, a similar price to the current bid (£41.25). It sold pretty rapidly... I think the best that one can say about the ebay listing is that it's been "painted"...

MrWolf Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Maybe it means that whoever painted it must have been high on something at the time? Or it looks good if you are high? 2 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
