Rembrandt etching lost in the mail
And this final note. You know how when you mail something — a package — they always ask whether you want insurance? You may or may not say yes, based on what’s in that package.
But if you’re shipping, say, a Rembrandt etching? A real one? Worth around 8,000? You’d probably get the insurance, right?
Well, a Norwegian art gallery decided to forgo the insurance. And now it’s lost somewhere in the country’s postal system.
Oops.
