Wanda's Work Of Art

Being a private investigator means two things. You can be sure you'll run into trouble and you can never be sure you'll get out of it But much you can do about it I guess except like Julie always says Walk softly please a Troy and now Peter Troy investigates wonders work of art If there's one thing I do not find amusing it's being played for a sucker

My secretary Julie believes that anyone has done about some things as I am I'm deserced to be played for a sucker now and then. An idea so loaded with prejudice that I wouldn't lower myself to argue about it.

But you'd be surprised at the number of people who get the thought in their well ventilated heads that a private investigator is a sort of stooge you hide to handle any old chore. Especially when you want a kind of dumb pawn to use in some very dubious racket.

For instance, let's consider the case of a glorious looking and very rich doll named who warmed a pain, who owned a highly valuable work of art, and Wilfred Hendricks, an elderly coo-courer and art museum.

Well, Mr. Hendricks, your experiment was an outstanding success. Yes, he did. Yes, he did. So far, not one of the experts has been able to tell the difference between my original of the Botticelli and your very clever copy.

Quite right, quite right. Look at them. Still pairing the two paintings as though their lives depended on it. The livelihood may depend on it one of these days. If you took it into your head to go on forging paintings as well as you did this one, the best experts in the world might find themselves quickly out of business.
