Base Engraving
Mr. Andrè Marie Ruf engraved the base with "maquette Andrè Marie Ruf - Clapton" (meaning "the man" was listening to Eric Clapton's music (he loved) while realizing the first wax) ... below he engraved 5/78 and then modified 05/79 ... and then he added Heinz ... writing stories in the bases was a tradition for Mr. Ruf ... a nice one ...
