An anonymous buyer...hopefully it will end up in a museum somewhere and not just in somones scrapbook because they had the money to bid on it.

Shoot, you could probably go to a place that sells music and scores and get a much nicer copy for less. That's what I would do.

Express the price in $Cdn. It sounds more impressive to say "Two mil". LOL.

Anonymous buyer... yeah, that was me. I just thought it would look nice to frame and put up somewhere around the apartment. Maybe in the bathroom... You guys can come over and see it though. Just PM me.
