I am wondering what the big fuss over kaspar cicero with a 13 facing is? Are they better than Chicago or ann arbor kaspars? Is it the particular blank that is used, or just the facing? If anyone with knowledge on this could please let me know why they are so desired (I am refering to a cicero 13 facing, not kaspars in general) please let me know. Thanks!

Did Bob Marcellus play one?
It's probably a facing in the middle of the Kaspar line.
AGAIN I say - buy from living makers!
It's like buying an Elvis reissue when living players starve!

It depends on which Elvis facing you buy. Early facings were taught but unrefined. Later facings were smoother but uninspired. Of course, the Vegas Elvis's are a total waste -- you might as well buy one of the excellent copies.

It's pronounced "Cheech-a-rrrr-Oh" and is neighboring town of "Bare-wyn" and once lived there famous patriot Anton Chermak who jumped in front of bullet aimed for famous president. Tony worked in coal mine in Coal City,Illinois as boy and always complained to foreman he wanted "raise". One day foreman took Tony down in elevator with him and then right back up again. When at top Tony said, "What was that all about?" Foreman says, "You just got your raise." Yes, it is a true story.
