And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
An interchangeable plastic toy runs into a unique work of art, built by craftsmen in an age of beauty.
I do hope that modern day craftsmen can repair the damage; as for the toy, throw it away. There are lots more where it came from, and none are worth much.
That's actually a fairly easy fix. Looks like straightforward woodwork. We used to buy fine wooden boats damaged worse than this on the Gulf coast after a hurricane or strong storm and then fix them up good as new. Paint matching might be hard but it's also pretty easy to paint a boat.
That's sad!
