So if I could pick just one to bid on, it would be the Yiru jushi calligraphy IP with the Qinyuan chun lyric.

Dear George,
    And if I were not boycotting the last Bloch sale, as I've boycotted every one but the first (Clare Chu bid for me on one bottle in the first auction), and all other auctions controlled by 'a certain dealer', since I don't appreciate being a mark in a con game;    Sad
 I'd be fighting you for it!  Wink
Best,
Shabbat Shalom,
Joey

Dear all,

This Yiru Jushi looks too clean and nice compared to the many that's in the Bloch collection.
If not, I will be interested too.

Cheers,
YT

Dear Steven,
    Honestly, how does it compare to my Zi Yizi with a similar subject on one side, D-2 in "Worlds" ?
Best,
Shabbat Shalom,

Dear Joey,

Your bottle is the same as wonderful as this bottle. but if I have to pick one out of those two, I might choose the one with buffalo only because that  I like the subject better .

Zi Yizi's painting strokes are very subtle, both of his bottles are the best examples.

Fair enough. I would also prefer the water buffalo side to my own, but I prefer my calligraphy side to the Bloch one's.
Shabbat Shalom,
Joey
