It is, but all I can say is, that seller would have a field day because I'd be loading those two houses up so fast. Do you guys realize that that's almost $1000 worth of houses for $250? I needa get into the business of buying houses like this, breaking them down, and reselling them on eBay. I wonder if I could make a living like that? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am, but at least here people don't think I'm totally deranged, like they do on some forums I'm on. LOL 8 hours ago, NellBell said: I’m looking at them but they are so big.

That would be too funny if it did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's a Visalian, the octagon tower is why I think that.....but the "attic" has either been modified on mine or the one in the ad lol....if they took a better picture...........also the measurements match my Visalian. It is a BEAST of a house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsbeth Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Who is John Masterman and why does his "from museum" diningroom roombox have large raw edge ribbon as rugs? https://www.ebay.com/itm/AMAZING-John-Masterman-Artist-3-Roombox-Dining-Family-Hall-Dollhouse-FROM-MUSEUM/362347594724 They need to drop the Thorne Room vibe. And the price. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenannediva Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I have not heard of John Masterman, but if it was in Angel's Attic he must have been someone at one time as I don't recall ever seeing any minis that were not truly museum quality. If I remember correctly they seemed to be into antique minis mostly. But then I was never that excited about Angel's Attic or the Thorne Rooms for that matter. I much more enjoyed The Great American Dollhouse Museum and the KSB Miniature Collection Museum both in Kentucky. I do agree with your assessment of the listing. P.S. Bespaq may be closed for good. Nothing official just info I received this morning when I was contacted by a mini shop owner. Will post if more info becomes available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
