Count, List,

The natural history museum in Vienna displays at least two irons with their
names on their etched faces. Here are shots of them. I believe that if the
Bella Roca is the main mass, the museum had acquired it by 1895. To me it
looks like an etching resist was applied before the acid then removed.
There are collectors and dealers with ties to the museum who could look into
the history and mechanics of the process if enough of us were interested.

I don't know how that unattractive marking was put on that etched slab, but
I'll bet it will come off. Then you'd have a nice specimen at a pretty fair
price. I saw this piece, or another butchered up one for sale several months
back. These look like what you would find at a roadside tourist trap along
with the chain saw carved squirrels and t-shirts.
